Corellian Engineering Corporation

The Corellian Engineering Corporation (CEC) was a spacecraft manufacturing firm that operated under the aegis of the Techno Union during the years of the Old Republic. They were responsible for the production of several lines of capital ships and freighter craft such as the YT-1300 light freighter and the CR90 corvette. Arguably, the most infamous craft in the galaxy that came out of the CEC's YT-1300 line was the Millennium Falcon. Despite extensive modifications made by its various owners (notably Han Solo and Lando Calrissian), the Falcon proved to be one of the fastest and manueverable freighter ships in the galaxy. During the Galactic Civil War, many of the CEC's CR90 corvettes were used as Rebellion Blockade Runners. The Corellian Engineering Corporation's primary competitors were Kuat Drive Yards, responsible for many of the capital ships, assault ships and frigates used by the Empire and Sienar Fleet Systems who specialized in smaller assault vehicles and starfighters.
