—Admiral Ackbar on Attempt 94 of assaulting Kuat Drive Yards

The Defender was a Guardian-class Space Station that protected Shipyard Sector 804. It was the capital, control center, administrating space station, headquarters, and trading center of the shipyard. It Defended Shipyard sector 804 from the time it was constructed to the time it was dissolved by a giant nebula. It was built by the Republic, taken by the Empire in Order 66, taken over by the New Republic, and later, honorably retired for a great service.
