The A-class bulk freighter was a type of container ship that gained popularity among terraforming expeditions shortly before the Galactic Civil War. It could also be referred to as an A-class bulk freighter.
In later years, ships of this type were found in a variety of roles. During the Battle of Sluis Van, Grand Admiral Thrawn sneaked a force of cloaked TIE/LN starfighters into the shipyards inside the hull of a PCL 27 by the name of Nartissteu. Another ship of this class was the Black Lotus, converted by the Camarina Connection to serve as a mobile drug laboratory.
