| − | An early member of her class and a former member of the Imperial Starfleet, the ''Horizon'' was purchased by the Corporate Sector Authority after she was retired from service. After several years with the CSA she was to be scrapped, but was "rescued" by Alliance personnel, and brought back to operational status. She currently serves as the flagship of Commodore [[Vansen Tyree]], and is the lead vessel of the 103rd. Originally, she carried an [[RZ-1 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing]] Squadron ([[Viper Squadron|Viper]]), a Shuttle / Transport Squadron ([[Raptor Squadron|Raptor]]), and an [[T-65B X-Wing Starfighter|X-Wing]] Squadron ([[Talon Squadron|Talon]]). However, after Talon Squadron was involved in the testing of the [[RZ-2 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing Mark II]] and converted permanently to that craft, a new Squadron that mixed personnel from pilot and ground forces backgrounds was formed to make use of their former X-Wings ([[Wildcard Squadron|Wildcards]]).

| − | A ship that participated with the Rebel Alliance fleet at the Battle of Endor, the ''Intrepid'' is the chief escort amongst the other members of the 103rd, assigned to provide protection against fighters and small craft for both the ''Horizon'' and her support and supply ships. Though in Imperial service she would have carried two Squadrons of TIE Fighters, she does not carry any while in Rebel service.

| + | |
| − | A pair of Blockade Runners, the ''Odyssey'' and ''Phoenix'' also form part of the escort group for the ''Horizon''. They are often deployed on reconnaissance missions, functioning as a vanguard for the fleet; they also provide a certain degree of support against small craft for the ''Horizon'' and her supply ships, although their weapons are neither fast or accurate enough to adequately provide protection against snubfighters. Prior to service with the Rebellion, the ''Phoenix'' was part of the Bothan Defense Force.

| + | |
| − | A veteran of the Clone Wars, the ''Challanger'' served as part of the Republic fleet during the conflict with the Separatists. With the advent of the [[Imperator-class Star Destroyer|''Imperator'']], many of the old ''Venator'' Star Destroyers were retired from service. The ''Challanger'' was sold to the Bothan Defense Force, and spent the next decade or so functioning as the command ship for the forces stationed at Bothawui, and as the launch platform for a sizable contingent of Bothan starfighters. Following the Liberation of Bothawui, the ''Challanger'' was released into Rebel service, and placed under the command of Captain [[Yumina Sokai]], to serve as her flagship and as command ship for Sokai's Phantoms. She carries a large proportion of the Task Force's Air Group, although she is equipped to nowhere near full capacity; the remainder of her flight deck is dedicated to cargo storage, helping to reduce the need for cargo and support vessels.
