Celestial
The Celestial is a personal yacht class used by the wealthy and powerful.  It combines luxury, speed, and a strong defensive armament in one sleek craft.  The Celestial has a large hangar bay for carrying personal landers, and in one instance is known to have supported a fighter squadron as well as two landers for the protection of its owner and guests.  The Celestial has spacious appointments for its guests, and even the crew live relatively well.  The ship’s cargo hold, while far too small to allow the Celestial to act as a merchant, is large enough to carry the luggage and personal vehicles of its wealthy passengers.  The Celestial is heavily armed for a civilian vessel, with two Class-1 batteries and two point defense batteries for self-protection.
