Capsule:

The "Eloquent" Star Frigate class is a very successful one in the Mon Calamari starship line. It's introduction after the Corellian Incident has changed the tide of battle for New Republic forces as soon as they showed up. The incredibly fast of an Eloquent hyperdrive allows it to be a part of advance attack forces, as well as catch up with enemy forces that are fleeing. However, this very new hyperdrive technology didn't come without a price: there is a 15 percent chance of hyperdrive failure, bringing the ship out of hyperspace - or worse. The reason behind this is due to Han Solo's interesting hyperdrive, from which the Eloquent was constructed. The Falcon's hyperdrive was created by Imperial engineers who apparentely did not finish it, and Solo has had some past troubles because of it. But the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, as the Eloquent is a fine class, and can be produced by the Mon Cal shipyards at a rate of one a month, the starfighters taking another month for every 12 built.
