Above and below the bridge are located the majority of the craft's turbolaser batteries, which requires that the captain keep the vessel pointed at the enemy in order to maintain an effective firing position. The Hammerhead design sports a narrow bridge and command center that is elongated at the head of the vessel. The Hammerhead was designed from the ground up to be a vessel that could both give and take excessive amounts of punishment, but it has been proven adept in several different roles across the galaxy. Nearly every star system in the galaxy can attribute a victory or defeat to the massive craft. One warship that has found a renewed popularity is the ancient Hammerhead Cruiser, which has had a long and distinguished history filled with stories of heroism, and valor. Though their original purpose has effectively been supplanted by newer vessels, aged warships will - so long as they are spaceworthy - continue to find a place in the fleets of industrious sentients throughout the galaxy.
