"Starships of the First Order and the Resistance" is a part of the Star Wars Encyclopedia series, which are canon reference guides. This particular booklet saw its release on July 6, 2021.
The First Order and the Resistance engaged in a galactic war, but their strategies differed significantly. The First Order, possessing superior technology and extensive preparation, deployed a massive fleet composed of modernized vessels. Conversely, the Resistance, much like the Rebellion before it, was compelled to maximize its limited resources, deploying ships not originally intended for combat. Notably, certain vessels, like the Tantive IV and Home One, experienced a resurgence in use, playing pivotal roles in both the Galactic Civil War and this subsequent, crucial period in history.
