The Liberty, a MC80 Liberty Type Heavy Star Cruiser belonging to the MC80 Star Cruiser series, saw action with the Alliance Fleet throughout the Galactic Civil War. Functioning as the command vessel for Corona Squadron, it played a significant role in the pivotal battle over Endor, where it became the initial target destroyed by the second Death Star.

With a length of 1,200 meters, the Liberty conformed to the typical dimensions of an MC80 Star Cruiser. Its original armament included turbolaser batteries, ion cannons, and tractor beam projectors.
Compared to the majority of starships within the Alliance Fleet, the Liberty was significantly larger and more advanced. Given that MC80s were created to ensure the comfort of the Mon Calamari, the internal temperatures were elevated, and the air was highly humid. Consequently, the environment on the Liberty was often unpleasant for human personnel.
