Champion (Bothan Assault Cruiser)

The Champion was a Bothan Assault Cruiser that served as the flagship of the New Republic fleet during the Battle of Kalarba in 26 ABY. It was commanded by the Twi'lek Brevet Admiral Glie'oleg Kru.

The Champion was destroyed by the Yuuzhan Vong during the battle whom blew it up despite the efforts of the New Republic starfighters including Rogue Squadron pilot Lieutenant Colonel Jaina Solo. The resulting explosion destroyed several starfighters including Jaina's X-wing though she managed to eject herself into space and was eventually retrieved. Unfortunately for her, she suffered injuries that temporarily blinded her. Jaina then received a medical leave transfer to Duro.
