The **Battle of Kuat Shipyards** also known as **The Assault of Kuat** was a battle fought between the Jedi Rebellion and The New Sith Empire 2 years after the Assault on Takodana. When The New Sith Empire would launch an attack on the Shipyards. The Rebels would send A Few Squadrons to maintain control of the Shipyards, the Rebel Defensive Fleet would inflict heavy casualties on the attacking Imperial Fleet, following the Rebel Reinforcements. The Rebel Fleet and Squadrons would successfully defend the Shipyards, destroying the Imperial Fleets and resulting in a very Skilled Pilot named Sara Ravenna into a Squadron Leader.

## **Prelude**

In the Aftermath of the Galactic Civil War, The New Republic had taken control of the shipyards from the Empire. In 13ABY when The New Sith Empire rose and began its conquest under Darth Malicious who would order An Mighty Imperial Fleet to take control of the shipyards, which they failed to do with the Republic maintaining control over the Shipyards and Planet and after it had collapsed. As The Kuat Shipyards would choose to ally with the Jedi Rebellion and The Rebels would send a defensive Fleet to defend the Shipyards.

## **The Battle**

2 years after The Imperial Assault on Takodana, The New Sith Empire under Emperor Malicious's Orders would launch an assault on the Shipyards. As 2 Massive Imperial Fleets would exit hyperspace and would quickly begin their attack on the Rebel Defensive Fleet, launching their Fighters and Sith Interceptors to intercept Incoming Rebel Fighters. As The Imperial Bombers began their bombing runs on the Defensive Fleet, the fleet would then send out a distress signal to the Base on Takodana and Rebel Leader Kenith Dellis would order a few Squadrons to assist the Defense Fleet. As The Squadrons exited out of hyperspace, they began to intercept Imperial Fighters and Interceptors and quickly began to be swarmed as more Imperial Fighters and Interceptors began to intercept Rebel Fighters and Interceptors beginning to destroy many Fighters and Interceptors.

An Imperial Fighter would intercept a Squadron taking out their leader, as the squadron began to panic. A Pilot named Sara Ravenna would take control of the Squadron and would send out a 2nd Distress Signal and as 2 Rebel Fleets arrived alongside more Squadrons including Bombers, Fighters and Interceptors. As Sara would lead her Squadron in an assault on the Imperial Fleets, as the Rebel Fleets would then surround the Imperial Fleets and would begin to tear through them. Sara and the Rebel Squadrons began to surround and pincer the Imperial Squadrons even leading some into the nearby Asteroid Field as the Remaining Imperial Ships began to flee, the Battle would end as Sara was called back to Takodana with her Squadron. The Rebel Fleets began to set up a defensive position around the Shipyards and Planet.

## **Aftermath**

In the Aftermath of the Battle, the Kuat Driveyards would fully ally with the Rebellion giving them Ships. Also, Sara would be granted the rank of a Squadron Commander and begin to command her own squadron, The Brave Squadron.
