History
The Resistance was a small secretive private military force that was established in the years of the New Republic. It was founded by rebel hero Leia Organa who created it with the goal of monitoring the actions of the First Order. Most of the power brokers of the New Republic tolerated the Resistance with them viewing Leia Organa along with her followers being fixated on the past. To survive, the crash-strapped movement relied on credits, ships and equipment that was secretly funnelled to them from the few Senators that were sympathetic to their cause.
Overview
Leadership was headed by the Resistance High Command that decided decisions of military importance. One of the bodies within their military was the Resistance Starfighter Corps that consisted of pilots from the ranks of Rebel Alliance veterans, disillusioned New Republic officers and adventure seekers from all across the galaxy.
Soldiers within the Resistance consisted of well trained and equipped troopers that relied on hit-and-run tactics to engage more overwhelming forces.
They made use of a variety of Starfighters that included the:
- A-Wing :
- Incom T-70 X-Wing : the latest incarnation of the classical X-Wing design that became the signature combat vehicle of the Resistance. This model was faster than the Rebellion era T-75s with them being maneuverable enough to engage TIE Fighters in dogfights and still be powerful enough to combat capital ships.
In terms of starships, they made use of Mon Calamari MC-90 Capital Ships.
