The Chivvay-class Heavy Cruiser (aka Chibe-class) is a heavy space cruiser class introduced in Mobile Suit Gundam.

The Chivvay-Class high speed heavy cruiser was a ship developed by Zeon to protect convoys and carry out various tasks, and often served as a flagship. It was normally equipped with two triple-barreled beam turrets, eighteen twin-barreled anti-aircraft batteries, and twelve missile launchers, but was not designed to carry MS. Despite this, its cargo bays could be easily converted to MS hangers if needed.

The Chivvay-class heavy cruiser was introduced by the Principality of Zeon the very same year the Earth Federation began its "Armament Reinforcement Plan" (UC 0070), long before the Principality began its production of mobile suits. It was originally designed to be a battleship. However, 3 months after its introduction, Earth Federation Forces introduced the Mega particle equipped Magellan-class and the new Salamis-class, both of which have beam cannons as their main guns. This placed the Chivay-class in a difficult position since despite its design purpose as a main battleship, as it lacked the fire power of beam weaponry at the time.
