==History==
Defiance replaced Home One as the flagship of Admiral Ackbar during the campaign against the reborn Emperor Palpatine.
Ackbar took the ship when he ventured on a recon mission to the Galactic Core. The Defiance managed to penetrate Imperial territory as far as Byss, where it observed a fleet of thousands of warships. The ship's transponder was damaged by an Imperial convoy and the ship returned to the Pinnacle Base to report its finding.Dark Empire audio drama
