- "The Rebel Alliance is too well equipped. They're more dangerous than you realize."
- ―General Cassio Tagge
The Alliance Military, also referred to as the Rebel military, or the Rebel Alliance Military, comprised the military forces of the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the lead up to and during the Galactic Civil War. It consisted of the Alliance Army, the Alliance Fleet, and the Rebel Alliance Starfighter Corps. Chancellor Mon Mothma was the Commander-in-Chief of the military. The Alliance High Command served as the principle authority by which military policy was carried out. Rebel Alliance Intelligence Service served as the Alliance Military's intelligence-gathering and covert operations branch.
During the final days of the Galactic Civil War, the Rebel Alliance defeated the Galactic Empire at the Battle of Endor, which led to the Alliance reorganizing into the New Republic . The Alliance Military was therefore transformed into the New Republic Defense Force.[17]
The Alliance military was rather large; by the time of the Mid Rim Offensive, it included hundreds of battle groups.[18]
