Defender-type

Defender-typeWiki Descriptive Term (In the absence of official sources, a Descriptive Term may be used) fleet escort was a type of warship utilized by the Colonial Fleet since the 1st Cylon War up to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies. At some point during its 50-year-long career, some of these ships were sold off to non-military entities as two of them were present in The Fleet led by Galactica, the only surviving military vessel. This vessel class was seen in two variants, with and without its flight pod. It can be presumed that the flight pod was removed at some point during its decommissioning and transfer to civilian use.
