The Bayonet-class cruiser was the first designed in the specific V-shape that allows a ship to concentrate nearly all its weapons on its front firing arc, a design later used successfully in the Star Destroyer line. This is also where the name Bayonet originated, to indicate the specific dagger shape of the ship.

At the time of development the Bayonet was revolutionary and turned the tide in many spatial battles. Today the ship is however a little outdated as heavier ships have taken her place. It was also noticed that the placing of the command module on the bayonet was too close to the ships main ion drives, causing frequent disturbances in communication. Most captains overcame this problem by using one of the starfighters assigned to the ship to act as a relay. Doing this however soon turned out to be a suicide mission for the fighter pilots as opponents discovered taking out that fighter was an excellent means of disrupting their enemies communication. However this does not mean that this is a ship to be trifled with. While it may no longer hold its own on the battlefield, it is still a serious threat to any freighter or starfighter. This is why the Bayonet-class today is mostly used by planetary governments to patrol relatively remote regions of space, in order to keep pirates and smugglers in check.
