Firebird II-class war cruiser

The Firebird II-class war cruiser was a proposed ship of the line for the Royal Navy of the Golden Empire.

The Firebird-class war cruiser dated back to the first decade after the Great Liberation, and by the 150s ABY, Prime Legate Sorrik and many Royal Navy High Command officers had begun to express concerns that the ship was falling behind the standards of modern galactic warfare. In 156 ABY, Queen Rin Sakaros authorized the Navy to develop a new ship to serve as the staple of the Navy and phase out the Firebird class over time.

Because of her extensive military experience and the fact that she had made the Firebird cruiser Valkyrie her flagship, Breek Zagrev was chosen to supervise the design of the new Firebird II class. She initially based the project at in the former.
