The Rebel Alliance also found Marauder Corvettes easier to come by than many other Capital Ships, and pressed them into service to cover a variety of roles, including escort, merchant raider, Starfighter carrier, and mobile ship repair. Older Sienar-built frames are often mothballed by the groups that originally bought them, and then end up as pirate or planetary defense ships (Or even armed luxury yachts). Like many patrol ships, the Marauder Corvette makes a perfect pirate vessel if it falls into the wrong hands.

There are few differences between the two types externally, though the Sienar models generally have nicer (If older) interiors.

As a result, two types of Marauders exist- those built by Sienar during the early days of the design (Well prior to the Clone Wars) and those built by The Corporate Sector Authority shortly after the Clone Wars. Eventually, the rights to produce the design were sold to The Corporate Sector Authority, which liked the ship's combination of firepower, range, and economical building and operating costs.

Sales were opened to other governments and organizations, but never met Sienar's high expectations. However, for some reason the Republic Senate would not approve purchase of the Starships. The Marauder Corvette was designed by Sienar Technologies to serve as a light Republic patrol cruiser. Diamond Covered Missiles - Marauder-class Corvette - Star Wars Ships & Vehicles
