Imperial Escort Carrier is an Imperial capital ship in Star Wars: Rebellion. The in-game encyclopedia says it was designed to add to a fleet's starfighter capacity. It gives TIE class fighters a hyperspace-capable platform for travel. It has light weapons and shields, but it can carry whole wings of fighters and shuttles.[1]

In the game

The Imperial Escort Carrier costs 34 refined materials to build and 30 to maintain. It has a fighter capacity of 6 and a troop capacity of 0. Its shields have a strength of 200.[1] The infobox values come from the game data.[2] The 25th Anniversary Community Patch does not change them.[3]

The manual's ship table gives the same capacity: 6 fighters and 0 troops.[4]
