A nearly retired warship of the Kingdom's Navy---built by Jump Aerospace Systems---the once proud *Cessation I*-class Cruiser is set to be fully retired by 0 ABY, a full 50 years since it entered service as the primary Command Ship, Communications Ship, and Capital Ship of the Kingdom's Navy. Now a relic of times long gone, a handful *Cessation I*-class Cruisers are finishing out their days as part of backwater worlds' Planetary Defense Fleets.

Once envisioned to be replaced by the *King I*-class Battlecruiser, later reclassified a cruiser after political turmoil sabotaged the *King I*'s intended role, the *Cessation I*-class's planned retirement in 20 BBY was put on hold until 8 BBY and to be completed by 0 ABY, with the introduction of the *King I Configuration*-class Heavy Cruiser. Despite the retirement plans, the *Cessation I*-class packs a punch with 6 All purpose mass driver cannons, 12 Quad Turbolaser Cannons, 24 double laser cannons, and 8 bow facing concussion missile launchers (12 missiles each, 96 missiles total).

The *Cessation II*-class Cruiser, produced from 10 BBY to Present, is the successor to the *Cessation I*-class. Although production has been slow to begin and didn't hit "ideal" levels until 7 BBY.
