Viscount-class Star Defender

The Viscount-class Star Defender was a warship developed by the Mon Calamari for use by the New Republic Defense Fleet.

After heavy losses in the Black Fleet Crisis, the New Republic Defense Force realized a need for heavier warships. Thus the Viscount-class, twice as large as the Mediator-class, was put into development. Viscount, the first ship of the class, was completed in 25 ABY, shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion began.

The Viscount-class, along with the Corellian Strident-class, marked the first of the Star Defender ship type.
