History

Action

The Escort Carrier Maelstrom rarely leaves the side of the Nighthawk. It carries roughly a squadron of Tie Phantoms and B-Wings, which are used for special operations. When an operation needs to be carried out, the Nighthawk escorts the Maelstrom to a range where the Escort Carrier can safely launch its fighters. Additionally, the Carrier’s fighters can protect the Nighthawk in the event of an attack. This symbiotic relationship is rarely broken.
