The MC80b Star Cruiser improved further upon the basic MC80 and MC80a designs, adding more powerful shields and heavier hull reinforcement. It was designed as a bridge between the primarily civilian MC80 and MC80a cruisers and the MC90 military cruiser. The MC80b measured 1,200 meters in length, and was armed with 48 turbolasers linked in four groups of twelve. Twenty ion cannons were linked in groups of four. Four squadrons of starfighters are housed in the ship's docking bays.

The MC80b is distinguished from the MC80a in that it has a "tail"-like protrusion out of its rear. But of course, all Mon Calamari Cruisers of all classes will not look exactly alike.

The Mon Remonda, which housed the legendary Wraith Squadron, and helped hunt down Warlord Zsinj, was an MC80b class cruiser.
