Height
50m(command tower)
Form
Despite some misgivings from High Command, the Defender-class Gunship was shaped like an Imperial Star Destroyer, as that form offered better placement of weapons, since weapons that could fire forward and to the side, or aft and also to the side.

Extra Cargo Space

The designers of the Defender-class Gunship and New Rebellion High Command insisted that the Defender-class Gunship be able to carry some extra supplies, as one of it’s roles would be defending convoys of transports, and it was decided that it would save costs if the ships defending the convoy could carry part of the load.
Special Systems
There are no special systems on the Defender-class Gunship, as though New Rebellion High Command asked for jammers to be placed on it, there was no room with the backup shielding and extra cargo space.
Description
The Defender-class Gunship was designed as a swift, small assault craft, and to protect convoys. It has extra cargo space, to carry part of the load that it is protecting, so that the New Rebellion can save a few credits, by not having to hire as many transports. Due to that extra cargo space, the Defender-class Gunship can be considered a very heavily armed transport. With that description in mind, it can be easily deduced that the Defender-class Gunship will be seen protecting many convoys. A standard convoy defence unit would consist of one Haven-class Light Cruiser, five Defender-class Gunships and numerous squadrons of fighters. Indeed, only the largest convoy will need any extra transports, as the five Defender-class Gunships alone carry 25 Metric Tons of cargo. On standard defence missions, to protect a planet from anyone assaulting it, the New Rebellion fleet will be sure to have some Defender-class Gunships. In fact, already there are different plans for what the different taskforces will consist of. The standard taskforce will probably be four Haven-class Light Cruisers, eight Defender-class Gunships, eight Nebulon-B2 Frigates, though Defender-class Gunships, and some additional fighter squadrons may replace these. On convoy intercept missions, one Interdictor Cruiser will defiantly be seen, protected by two Haven-class Light Cruisers and 4 Defender-class Gunships, more then enough to eliminate the any convoy escort.
