Gideon's light cruiser

Gideon's light cruiser was a Class 546 model of the Arquitens-class command cruiser under the command of Moff Gideon in the years after the Battle of Endor. 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 Phase-III Dark Troopers, though they were destroyed by Djarin and Jedi Master Luke Skywalker. Control of the cruiser was then handed over to Bo-Katan Kryze. When Kryze's forces left her after she did not take the Darksaber from Din Djarin, command of the vessel fell to Axe Woves, who used it for mercenary work and later as a flagship for the Mandalorian garrison. The vessel was eventually destroyed during the conflict on Mandalore, when Woves steered the vessel onto a collision course with Gideon's Imperial base, killing the Moff and his remaining forces.
==Description==
The Arquitens-class command cruiser was the Imperial control of the moff, and when it was taken by the Mandalorians, it has the symbol of the mythosaur underbelly, similar to the Thrawn's flagship the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Chimaera with the symbol of the chimaera underbelly.
==Behind the scenes==
The light cruiser first appeared in "Chapter 12: The Siege," an episode of the live-action TV show The Mandalorian, which aired in 2020. It was realized by the building of a detailed five-foot scale model.
