[edit] History

The Home Fleet was composed of various fleets meant to protect the Coruscant system and other nearby areas. Each division of the Home Fleet was commanded by a Jedi Master of the Jedi Order.

During the final days of the Clone Wars, the Venator-class Star Destroyers of the Home Fleet that remained in-system played a vital role in the defense of Coruscant against General Grievous's forces during the Battle of Coruscant. Organized under the banner of the Home Defense Strike Force, the ships raced to defend the capital's citizens.

Even though its ships were apparently outnumbered by Confederate Navy's forces, the intervention of the Open Circle Fleet, under the direct command of High Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, turned the tide of the battle.

After the Republic was transformed into the Galactic Empire, Imperial Admiral Barrow Oicunn served as an officer in the Coruscant Home Fleet.
