Escorts are vessels intended to protect and assist larger vessels. They are capable of independent action, but are usually assigned to support Battleships and Cruisers.
The mainstay of the escort fleet is the ED series.
These escort destroyers are typical of Imperial needs. The ED-13, derived from the ED-12, was relatively unsuccessful, and the naval architects returned to the ED-12 for inspiration for the later ED-14.
The EF-12 served as the design basis for two divergent ship types: the escort fleet (and later escort strike designs) and the escort missile EM-13/-15.
