- "With the Emperor dead, the Empire will be in chaos. Most of the ships from the Kuat blockade will have returned from the battle over Endor to regroup. The time to strike is now! We must take control of the Eclipse."
- ―Tyber Zann
The Kuat blockade was a fleet of starships that blockaded the planet Kuat. The blockade was under the command of Admiral Gaarn.
Composition
An Executor-class Star Dreadnought, the Annihilator, served as the blockade's flagship. Multiple capital ships, such as Imperial-class Star Destroyers, Victory-class Star Destroyers, Acclamator-class assault ships also served in the fleet. Various support vessels, such as Broadside-class cruisers, Tartan-class patrol cruisers, and Immobilizer 418 cruisers.[1]
Various TIE series models, such as the standard TIE/LN starfighter, TIE/sa bomber, TIE/IN interceptor, and TIE/D Defender were a part of the blockade as well.
The blockade made use of three Cardan V-class space stations, which were mainly used in protection of the yet completed Eclipse, which was an Eclipse-class dreadnought. At least five Plasma Defense Satellites, and three Orbital Repair Satellites were used as well.[1]
