Manowar

A manowar was a warship of indeterminate origin used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. Several manowars were part of the Rebel fleet assembled for the Battle of Endor. Their fate is unknown.

Behind the scenes
In real life, a manowar (a.k.a. 'man of war', 'man-of-war', 'man-o'-war' or simply 'man') referred to an armed naval vessel. The term was often used to distinguish between a ship with cannons that was propelled by sails, as opposed to a galley, which was propelled by oars.
