We'll take a look at Thrawn's Fleet in Star Wars Legends to guess what he might use in Star Wars canon, including Season 2 of Ahsoka and the potential movie.

    I'm not super up on the timelines, but given how Thrawn liked to be on the cutting edge of things, I don't think it would be out of line to say the Chimera had "unique" upgrades over the standard Imp I... maybe it was field testing some of the Imp II's upgrades? Also, I want to see more Raiders... I mean the Gazantte (sp?) is cool and all, but after seeing the Corvus in action, I /really/ want to see more of it's class in the live action...

Escort Carriers? Sure why not. Screed's Gladiator class? the Tector? The Vindicator cruiser? The so called "Dungeon ship"? The Arc Hammer? (This one makes sense, retool it as a mobile shipyard/fighter refit facility so Thrawn isn't tied down to a planetary body and can remain mobile). a Torpedo Sphere? Assault Gunboats, Assault Transports, TIE Defenders and Advanced? I'll take them all. I have no delusion that any or all of them will appear, but as long as we're dreaming, might as well dream BIG.

    I think that, if we do see Thrawn build up a new fleet, we need to see him largely adopt the Carrack class. If it's done well, it could explain why we haven't seen it canon so far for example: have some older Imperials complain that it's too small and can't fight capital ships but have Thrawn demonstrate its use against New Republic starfighters, maybe show a group of them absolutely shredding an enemy of squadron while the duels a Nebulon-B or something. If you really wanted to you could even fabricate some new lore for it by saying that the few that we see are sent by the Chiss Ascendancy which incorporated Imperial technology with Chiss ship construction techniques (Maybe have a certain Commander Vanto personally deliver them).

    I think Thrawn fleet will be either a Venator, Acclamator or Arquitens. Disney has plenty of pics of Venators and Arquitens so they’re most likely but I’m hoping they’re Acclamators. Less fire power than a Star destroyer but more than a light cruiser. They’re also faster and require a smaller crew (700) and would be perfect for hit and run with their .7 hyperdrive and cheaper to build allowing mass production and wolf pack tactics.

    I could definitely see Thrawn acquiring the Katana Fleet early on after he regroups with Shadow Council allies at Dathomir. If Ezra has informed the New Republic about his return they will have likely reinforced the living hell outta their shipyards and capital worlds. But them not knowing how his fleet will grow will be the crucial secret for him that gives him the element of surprise. How will the New Republic be able to respond when they're expecting his flagship and *maybe* the rest of his fleet that was forcibly removed out of Lothal, only to run into the Katana Fleet and later the reinforcements from the Shadow Council that most likely have fully-stocked ISD-IIs, Victory-IIs, Lancers, Carracks, Strikes, Immobilizer 418s, Arquitens Class 546s, Gozantis, and Raider-IIs?

    The only issue I see with introducing the Katana fleet is the amount of backstory that goes along with it. Given all the elements that were introduced in Ahsoka s.1 I think they’ll substitute the Katana fleet with the new class of cruisers the New Republic were using. Built by ex-Imperials perhaps Thrawn can commandeer them at the flick of a switch.

Fast forward to present, there’s a fleet of ships just beyond the outer rim, assumed destroyed, but just out of gas… just waiting to be found.

Have his fleet distract the pirates, and then using the Thrawn pincer, get transports close to insert Special Forces and let them mop up the pirates.

At the end it would be him at his full strength for whatever series or movie that will bring about his defeat/death.

    Thrawn with a Venator the "Typhon" (one of the parents of a chimera) as a flagship would be great. Combine that with tie-interceptors and bombers for short range support and tie-defenders as hyperspace capable long-range strike craft and Thrawn would be unstoppable. -Support ships: 1 small interdictor, 2 munificent cruisers for fire support and anti-starfighter (Thrawn has been shown to be fond of separatist technology in canon, if we need to stay imperial I think gladiator sds or dreadnaught heavy cruisers or strike cruisers), 2 imperial nebulon b frigates, 2 lancer frigates, 1 raider corvette, a stealth IPVC-2 corvette (submarine), and a few gozantis for resupplying.

    The ISD I has a taller sensor array compared to the ISD II, thats the most identifiable way to distinguish the two. Other smaller differences are that the shield generators on the ISD II sit level to the sensor array compared to the way they follow the slant of the bridge superstructure on the ISD I. And last major difference, the main rack of main battergun flanking either side of the lower superstructure on the ISD I are double barreled, on the ISD II, They're octuple-barreled.

    I doubt thrawn has access to a large amount of manpower (in canon), and as such I doubt he has the necessary manpower needed to man a large amount of ships. If the capsules he brought back into the galaxy turn out to be hibernation pods, he has a decent amount of manpower, but I still think far from enough to man a fleet like the katana fleet from legends. If we however assume the fleet to be made up of different ship types, e.g. a seperatist fleet, filled up with B-1's, even if we have to account for an 80% system failure rate for the droids, we should definitely have enough troops to at least move the fleet where necessary.

    I think, at this point we are going to have to taper out expectations...I think Dave would rather be a little more straightforward in his story telling and probably give him ships that more aline with where the First Order ultimately goes. I imagine we'll see lots of Imperial 1 and 2 star destroyers. I would love to see Thrawn employ some more dimensional tactics. You know, like more true to character lol. I think it would be really interesting to see the old rebels get a taste of their own medicine, but with some imperial flavor.
