Courageous (Inexpugnable-class)

Courageous was the name of Saul Karath's battleship during the Mandalorian Wars.

Characteristics


Judging by the size of the ship compared to the smaller Hammerhead-class capital ships around it, Courageous seemed to be a large command ship-predecessor of the Super Star Destroyers of the Galactic Empire. It was the head of the Courageous battle group.

The vessel was built with several forward-facing hangars that could launch dozens of fighters. On its bridge it bore a large holoprojector, giving its captain a complete overview of the battle in real-time. The design of the ship mirrored that of the later Lucrehulk-class battleships of the Trade Federation, possibly meaning that the ship was from Hoersch-Kessel Drive, but the paintjob resembles the Rendili Hammerhead-class.

History


The Courageous was under the command of Captain, later promoted to Admiral, Saul Karath and served as the flagship of one of the Republic's battle groups. Commander Dallan Morvis was the ship's second-in-command, and then-Lieutenant Carth Onasi was a prominent pilot aboard the ship.

The vessel participated in a number of skirmishes throughout the Mandalorian Wars, including the Battle of Vanquo and the ill-fated Battle of Serroco. Following the devastation on Serroco, Admiral Karath ordered a retreat towards Telerath. In a dispatch to the Admiral of the Fleet, he revealed his intention to regroup at Myrkr or the Ryyk Nebula with the Tremendous battle group arriving from an undisclosed part of the galaxy. Unfortunately, a Mandalorian fleet damaged the ship and boarded it, thus forcing an evacuation.
