The GR-75 medium transport was a class of transport ship used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Description[]
The GR-75 was fitted with more engines than the civilian-use GR-45 to produce more power in an emergency. The ship had a hollow, partially-open interior where several stacks of cargo modules and personnel modules were placed. These modules hung underneath magnetic rails and were kept in place with a magnetic containment field. Each ship had a dedicated front crane that could load and unload the modules. The cockpit was located on top of the vessel, similar to the GR-45.
History[]
These ships were used at several important Alliance bases. Massassi Base and Echo Base had designated hangar space for the transports. There they were loaded and unloaded by dedicated cargo tugs.
During the Battle of Hoth, these vessels were used as escape transports for the Officers and Troopers. The transports formed part of the Rebel fleet that gathered outside of galactic space, following the successful evacuation of Hoth.
GR-75s were later used as support vessels for other ships in the fleet at the Battle of Endor.
