- "We must surprise the Empire by doing what they least expect: a frontal assault on their homeworld. Jedi and Republic warships will converge on Dromund Kaas and engage the Imperial fleet. We will mask your assault on the surface."
- ―Jedi Grandmaster Satele Shan coordinates an assault on Dromund Kaas with the Hero of Tython
The First Defense Fleet was a fleet in the Imperial Navy of the reconstituted Sith Empire charged with defending Dromund Kaas, the Empire's capital planet.[1] In 3640 BBY,[3] during the Galactic War with the Galactic Republic, the fleet battled the forces of the Republic Navy when an invasion force under the leadership of Jedi Grand Master Satele Shan attacked Dromund Kaas. The Defense Fleet was largely successful during the battle, inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy, but the Republic fleet withdrew when their true mission—the defeat of the Sith Emperor—was completed.[1]
