Evakmar-KDY transports represented a rare instance of genuine collaboration between the Imperial Army and the Imperial Navy. Irrespective of the specific corps type, these ships were engineered to accommodate an entire standard Army Corps. Furthermore, the design of these vessels incorporated future scalability, allowing for potential increases in the size of a standard corps.
A short time after 0 BBY, Evakmar-KDY transports were regarded as some of the most modern ships within the Imperial Navy. During that period, their typical deployment involved troop lines composed of two transports, along with two escort ships, most often Strike cruisers.
The Imperial Navy's Fleet Technical Services also made frequent use of the Evakmar-KDY transport to move substantial numbers of technicians to their required destinations. When used in this capacity, each transport was generally protected by two escorting frigates.
