MedStar-class Frigate
this was the term used to describe the series of medical frigates that were used by the Old Republic to supply their remote bases and outposts during the Clone Wars. Developed by Kuat Drive Yards, the MedStar-class vessel was a self-contained dispensary, and traveled back and forth from a primary supply bsae to the planets it provided with all manner of drugs and materiel. Within the hull of one of these ships were state-of-the-art xeno- and bio-medical facilities that rivaled some of the best groundside hospitals of the Old Republic. Because these ships were excessively expensive, only a few were commissioned by the Old Republic. However, as the Clone Wars ground on, the need for more MedStar-class vessels forced the Republic to order more.
