The Taldryan Republic Naval Fleet (TRNF) is one of two major branches of the Taldryan Republic Defense Force. Following its reorganization in 39 ABY by Proconsul and Taldryan Naval Grand Admiral Teebu Nyrrire, it was made to consist of three separate individual battle groups each under the command of its own assigned Admiral. These three fleets operate independently of each other, each with its own specific specialization and mission structure.
In the rare instances when greater firepower was needed and neither the Iron Navy nor the forces of other Clans were available, the Taldryan Navy deployed their entire line as a single united fleet, with the Leviathan acting as flagship.
History
- Main article: Taldryan Navy/History
Organization
Owing to the influence of former Imperial personnel throughout its chain of command, as of 39 ABY the Taldryan Navy was organized with the concept of operations both as individual unique fleets as well as an Imperial Navy battle squadron when the situation called for it. This was further exemplified in 40 ABY with the formation of the Taldryan Republic and the full reorganization of the military to support it's cause as a republic.
The Taldryan Republic Naval Fleet was constructed of 3 primary battle groups, the Allegiance, Bastion and Sovereign. It was also supported by the Lightning Floatilla and quick-strike Orbital Assault Corps Bombad.
Fleet Command
Naval Fleet Headquarters - Caleria Shipyards
Located in District 3 of the Kasiyan City of Caleria, the Taldryan Republic Naval Fleet Headquarters consists of forty-five floors above ground, and fifteen below the water's surface.
In the event of an enemy attack, or should Caleria be lost to enemy forces, District 3 has a unique modular system that allows it to separate itself from the frame of the city and operate separately and independently, even with exterior seals and thruster systems to grant the ability to reach orbit. The Calerian Shipyards are also present in District 3, directly to the southeast of the headquarters and are also a part of this modular system.
Taldryan Republic Naval Fleet Flagship - Leviathan
The Starhawk-class Battleship Mark II Leviathan serves as the Taldryan Republic's primary ship of the line, and naval flagship. The Leviathan is commanded by Taldryan Republic Vice-Chancellor and Grand Admiral Teebu Nyrrire, and is captained by Chella Orsonn in his absence. It is also the lead flagship of the Allegiance Battle Group division of the Naval Fleet.
At an impressive 2400-meters long, it supported a crew of 34,200 with a passenger compliment of 7,200. It was also capable of carrying up to 100,000 metric tons of cargo, as well as 6 squadrons of starfighters. In times of emergency, this could be further expanded by utilizing open hangar space as well as the storage areas that were adjacent to the TIE Bays near the rear sections of Upper Hangar Bay 2.
It's armament was the most impressive part of it however, due to it's utilization of the Advanced Kyber-Powered Turbolaser System. Using the focusing strength of Kyber Crystals, it allowed its total compliment of 110 turbolasers (20 octuple turbolaser barbettes, 30 forward heavy turbolaser batteries, along with 30 port and 30 starboard heavy turbolaser batteries) to operate at far greater strength, distance, and power compared to the Starhawk Mark II's standard turbolaser systems.
Leviathan Starfighter Squadrons
- 4 TIE/D Defender Squadrons "Sarlaac, Rancor, Aurek, and Oracle Squadrons"
- 2 TIE/SE Bomber Squadrons "Krayt and Balrog Squadrons"

Allegiance Battle Group
Peacetime Missions
During times of peace, the Allegiance Battle Group served under the command of Admiral Zangar Estyrix is tasked with patrols throughout the exterior of the Taldryan Republic territory. Consisting of a heavy support composition of ships that have the capability of covering a massive amount of space in a short time, and it was primarily suited for giving system support responding to pirate threats or incursions, and assisting with distress signals dispatched throughout the territory.
Wartime Missions
For wartime deployments, the Allegiance Battle Group's role would shift to that of purely offensive missions with usage of the Courageous Flight shuttles for quick transport and deployment of the 1st Grand Legion of the Taldryan Army to required battlefields should they be within Taldryan territory. In the event that a war were away from the Taldryan Dominion, defense of the territories would be left to the Bastion Battle Group.

Bastion Battle Group
Peacetime Missions
During times of peace, the Bastion Battle Group operates under the command of Admiral Aralak Baaru. It is tasked with patrols throughout the interior areas of the [[Caelus System, and primary defense of the Republic’s homeworld of Kasiya. Constructed with brute force in mind and a demonstration of increased power, it is meant to deflect any assaults on the homeworld and also utilizes a special sensor suite that detects any and all Ascendant items or weapons that utilizes Ascendant crystals up to two parsecs from the location of the Battle Group.
Wartime Missions
For wartime deployments, the Bastion Battle Group is often accompanied and overseen by the Supreme Chancellor Appius Wight. It's role becomes the primary vanguard fleet for strikes and assaults, usually joined by the Sovereign Battle Group when called for and when the Taldryan Army requires deployment.

Sovereign Battle Group
Peacetime Missions
During times of peace, the Sovereign Battle Group under the command of Admiral Tatanni Gilran is tasked with the direct defense and patrol of the starwars:Seitia_Sector at large. The primary location where most of the fleet resides is along the Corellian Trade Spine between the Caelus system and the Berrol's Donn systemproviding a final line of defense as well as minor, moderate, and high-levels of inspections on incoming and outgoing ships. While not as powerful or agile as the Allegience or Bastion Battle Groups, the Sovereign Battle Group makes up for this with the firepower and squadron compliment from the Bastion when needed. This combined with the composition of the Lightning Floatilla, it quickly becomes the most formidable defense that Taldryan has at its disposal.
Wartime Missions
For wartime deployments, the Seventh Fleet is often assigned to the defense of the Taldryan Republic's mid-sector territories, with outer territory support as requested or called upon. It never travels to the furthest boundaries however, it leaves that to the ships of Berrol's Donn and Seitia Prime so that it can keep close proximity to Caelus and the Taldryan homeworld of Kasiya.

Lightning Floatilla
Peacetime Missions
During times of peace, the Lightning Floatilla is either stationed over Kasiya with the Bastion Battle Group or on trade line patrol with the Sovereign Battle Group. Its build allows for quick strikes and mass-disabling of enemy vessels while they are busy targeting the Penitence and Wraith Interceptor Squadrons, piloted by prisoners with the promise of freedom after a successful mission. This is accomplished through the ultra-high speed of the Floatilla flagship's EMP Burst, with the support Marauder-class Corvettes in charge of towing in and rescuing the two squadrons.
Wartime Missions
The only assignment change that takes place during wartime, is that the Lightning Floatilla will conduct strike-and-run missions or jump into a system of high ship concentrations ahead of one of the Battle Groups. It's goal becomes disabling as many enemy vessels as possible before the Battle Group jumps in, to lower the amount of offense against them.
Floatilla Composition
Weapons System Modifications
- EMP Burst Charge - The Serenity has been augmented with an EMP Burst Charge, allowing the activation and discharge of an advanced electromagnetic pulse system designed by the Tenixir Revenant. It allows a capital ship vessel equipped with this upgrade to fire a medium-range burst of electromagnetic energy that ionizes the systems of every other vessel in the immediate vicinity, rendering them inoperable for several minutes.
Starfighter Squadrons

Orbital Assault Corps Bombad
Missions
Unlike the other groups, when active the Orbital Assault Corps Bombad focuses on forced enemy attrition and destruction of ground assets on enemy worlds for dispatch of Taldryan Republic armed forces. It is generally protected by an accompanying Battle Group from long-range assaults and close-up attacks. When not in use, it is stationed and docked in the Caleria Shipyards.
