New Republic Fifth Battle Group
Commissioned shortly before the Black Fleet Crisis, the Fifth Battle Group has been a controversial unit for the New Republic. Many Senators have feared the fleet made up entirely of the advanced New Class warships would become a weapon of conquest across the galaxy, leading the New Republic into becoming another Empire. Nonetheless, its formation proved timely and handled the Black Fleet Crisis, eventually calling upon all New Class vessels in New Republic service to do so. It later operated with the Third Battle Group under Admiral Ackbar to push back the Imperial Remnant to its current borders a year before the signing of the Bastion Accords.
