Maul-Type Escort Ship (D1)

''Sturdy and solidly built, the Maul is the largest of the three classes of abandoned escorts that the Colonial fleet has managed to recover and retrofit for service. Its reinforced hull and heavy armor plating make it ideally suited to close escort and guard duties.''

Systems
As an Assault ship, the Maul can be equipped with more armor systems than other escorts, further increasing its toughness and defensive capabilities.
