The '''''Valiant''''' is an [[MC40a Star Cruiser]] of Mon Calamari design, on detatched duty from the [[103rd Interdictor Squadron]].

The ''Valiant'' is just one of numerous Mon Calamari craft that entered the [[Rebel Alliance]] fleet in the years before the [[Battle of Endor]].

One of her main assignments since Endor was on hit-and-run missions against Imperial supply lines, helping to keep the Empire off-balance and provide advantages to other Alliance Fleet operations elsewhere in the region. At that time she was commanded by Captain [[Vansen Tyree]]: a veteran Republic and Imperial Navy Officer. One such mission saw the ''Valiant'' and her crew successfully liberate two [[Action VI Transport]]s from an Imperial convoy along the [[Hydian Way]].

The Valiant is an MC40a Star Cruiser, under the command of Colonel Leela Vorega. It is currently assigned as one of the vessels escorting The Wheel.

History

The Valiant entered Rebel service around the time of the Battle of Hoth, and was part of the Defiance Task Force during the campaign against Admiral Holtz. She continued in service with the task force until the Battle of Endor, but missed the engagement itself due to battle damage sustained in a preliminary skirmish.

After Endor, the Valiant returned to service under Captain Vansen Tyree - a Republic and Imperial veteran - who used his knowledge of the Empire's tactics to lead a hit-and-run campaign against Imperial supply lines, particularly along the Hydian Way. Operations ranged from simple harrassment to the pirating of supplies, and also the destruction of escort craft where necessary.

Command later passed to Colonel Leela Vorega, the former leader of the fighter compliment aboard Valiant. She took charge of the ship during the Liberation of Bothawui, and remained in command after the ship was deployed on a classified assignment to escort The Wheel - a convoy of Jedi survivors - during which time the ship acted as the base of operations for Rogue Squadron.

More recently, the Wheel has been joined by now-Commodore Tyree aboard the Challenger, and the Valiant's role has now changed to that of scout, vanguard, and escort. Rogue Squadron is primarily deployed aboard the Challenger, but the Valiant is still used should the squadron need to be conveyed elsewhere in the galaxy to conduct a mission - part of the security measures designed to prevent the location of the Wheel from being discovered by the Empire.

Out of Character

An MC40a named Valiant appeared in the computer game X-Wing Alliance. This version and the Fans version are regarded as the same, as far as the Galactic Civil War backstory is concerned.
