- "The Moff has a light cruiser. It could be helpful in your effort to regain Mandalore."
- ―Din Djarin, to Bo-Katan Kryze, regarding Gideon's Class 546 Cruiser
Gideon's light cruiser[4] was a Class 546 model[1] of the Arquitens-class command cruiser[2] under the command of Moff Gideon in the years after the Battle of Endor.[4] During the rescue of his foundling, Grogu, from Gideon, the Mandalorian Din Djarin and his allies seized the ship and captured the moff. The light cruiser also contained a platoon of third-generation dark troopers, though they were destroyed by Djarin and Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.[5]
