Anakin Solo (Imperial II-class)

"What did he think? That he would drag our little brother's name into the poodoo pit with him?"

- Jaina Solo, speaking of Anakin Solo

Anakin Solo was an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer named after the Jedi Knight Anakin Solo.

Characteristics
The ship was painted black, as it was the under the personal command of Jacen Solo, the commander of the Galactic Alliance Guard, whose semi-official color was black. It was equipped with a cloaking device and a gravity well generator, as well as three state-of-the-art long-range turbolasers. These turbolasers drew a substantial amount of power, and non-essential systems needed to be shut down when firing.

History
"They named a GAG Star Destroyer after my dead boy? The kriffing rodders!"

- Han Solo

Launched in 40 ABY from the General Crix Madine Military Reserve, Anakin Solo was designed specifically for the Galactic Alliance Guard, and as such was painted black and crewed at least partially with GAG personnel.

Anakin Solo had just completed its shakedown cruise when Jacen Solo took the ship to Hapes to defend Queen Mother Tenel Ka from the burgeoning insurrection there. The ship also served as a safe location to keep Allana away from assassins.

Anakin Solo saw its first victory during the Battle of Hapes, where its commander, Jacen Solo, succeeded in dismantling the Hapan fleet assembled by Ducha AlGray and her Heritage Council.

At Hapes, Jacen ordered it to fire on Millennium Falcon when he suspected his parents to be involved in the plot by the Corellian alliance to kill Tenel Ka. The Falcon was nearly destroyed, and his parents' Noghri bodyguards, Cakhmaim and Meewalh, were killed.

Jacen later commanded Anakin Solo during an attempt to break up a smuggling operation near Bespin. Solo succeeding in his endeavor, capturing Uran Lavint and her ship Breathe My Jets.
