Night Caller cannot be a even a modified CR90 corvette. There simply isn't enough room to cram all of those starfighters in. Robert Brown argues the point here: http://www.synicon.com.au/sw/br/tantive.htm#xwws

The mod CRV carrier can hold about 6-8 fighters inside and another 9 on the docking stations IIRC, they extend and I think 3 fighters can dock on each. It is not bilaterally symetrical. I drew up a redesign that placed the hanger across the bottom and deepened it by a few decks, much better IMO, In the campaign it carried a 6-8 X-Wings and 4-6 Defenders, non-hyper capable fighters similar to A-Wings, 2 seat, but only 1 set of weapons, triple lascannon forward. The Corvette was a custom design built for the local Moff.
