Description: The Royal Alderaanian Fleet was the Alderaan Sector and the Alderaan System's primary defensive force. Small when compared to other large sector defense fleets like in Humbarine, Hosnian Prime, Corellia, and Kuat, they were no laughing matter when gathered together. Comprised of older ships or vessels purchased from the Galactic Alliance after the Sith-Imperial Civil War, they were crewed with professional military crews, some of which had seen actual combat in the last few decades of wars and conflicts. The fleet tried to stay out of noble family politics, but was often the battleground for such petty disputes with family houses taking command of prominent ships in the fleet through a promoted relative or the like. While they had their own chain of command, the Alderaanian Knights, due to their primary goal to defend the queen and her family, did have a large amount of sway in the Fleet, to the point of the flagship also being a shared command vessel of the Alderaanian Knights. The fleet was also home to the famed Ghosts of Alderaan, an ancient and honored fighter wing that once fought alongside the age-old Alliance to Restore the Republic after the destruction of the original Alderaan. Alderaanian Knight squadrons also flew with the fleet as their numbers grew.

The Royal Alderaanian Fleet had two main components: Its humanitarian division, which for most of its Post-Gulag tenure had been its primary focus, and the defense wing, which has seen an influx of credits to build up. The Humanitarian fleet was composed of

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Despite its bright shining chromium and air of privilege, the people of Alderaan were no stranger to war. Over the years since the end of the Gulag Plague, it has largely relied on its connection to exterior entities and governments to provide for its defense. Its old Royal Fleet was mostly token, flying flights overcrowded venues and escorting its queen and senators across the galaxy. Instead of its combat capability, the Royal Fleet was known for its humanitarian efforts. With hundreds of medical vessels and thousands of teams of doctors and scientists, they aided anyone who cried out for help. However, after two occupations by the Sith, the King declared the Royal Fleet be reformed and remade.

Most of its older vessels remained in service. However, its small fleet of aging light cruisers and corvettes was not up to the task. It was a massive undertaking and saw much push back from the other Great Houses who saw the build-up as going against their perception of a pacifist Alderaan. It wasn't until the attack on Coruscant by the Brotherhood of the Maw and the subsequent Alliance Defense Enhancement Act that the Royal Fleet saw both monetary and social backing.

Placed in the hands of the Alderaanian Knights, the Royal Alderaanian Fleet flew again. More than a defense force, more than a medical corps, the RAF invoked the Ghosts of Alderaan to defend freedom, liberty, and democracy.
