The ship has blue neon strip lights that highlight the shape of the hull, and minimal heat vents that fit inside the ship.<ref name=":0" /> The cockpit is similar to the [[Imperial Courier]] with an extra seat.<ref name=":1" /> Ports on the outer edges of the nacelles allow the thrusters to be observed externally, spinning faster as the ship accelerates.

As a departure from earlier Imperial Gutamaya ships which feature weapon Hardpoints on their nacelles, all of the Corsair's Hardpoints are located on it's fuselage, affording much tighter weapon convergence.
