Freedom Mk II Class Star Destroyer

The Freedom Class Star Destroyer was a line of heavily modified Imperial-II Class Star Destroyers who defected to the Rebel Alliance under the command of Admiral David Alexander. They underwent modification at the Mon Calamari Shipyards to remove Imperial programming, as well as to automate many of their systems, reducing the crew requirement from 37,000 to only 5,000. Initially, only 24 of these vessels existed. However, other Imperial Star Destroyers subsequently defected, or were captured, and underwent similar modification.
