Bulk cruisers are old vessels first available about two centuries before the Clone Wars, and by the time of the Rebellion Era they are used almost exclusively by planetary governments, corporations, and the Alliance.  They are considered unreliable and unable to survive a fleet action, so the Rebels modified them into carrier-cruisers or relegated them to transport escort duty.  Bulk cruisers converted into starfighter carriers (such as the model above) can carry three squadrons (36 starfighters) plus two Medium-sized or smaller craft docked on external docking couplers.
