==Prehistory==
(contracted; show full)

During the campaign, the Taiidan showed increasingly erratic behavior, including attacking a Bentusi vessel and attempting to crash an asteroid into the Kushan mothership. One of the Emperor's many failed attempts to stop the Kushan Exiles was the use of multiple Hyperspace Inhibitors around Hiigara. Thanks to information provided by Captain Elson, the Kushan were able to locate and destroy the least heavily guarded Inhibitor and proceed to Hiigara.


There are rumors that the Taiidan was the race intended to be played through the single-player campaign.⏎

==[[Homeworld 2]] era==
After the Hiigarans re-established their Empire, the remnants of the '''Taiidan Empire''' were assimilated into the forces of the [[Vaygr]] warlord Makaan. Influences of the Taiidani can be seen in some of the Vaygr ship designs, such as the Assault Frigate. The '''Taiidan Republic''' is not mentioned, but Taiidani elements in ship design are also seen in the new Hiigaran ships, making it likely that they still exist within the Hiigaran Empire, or were at least absorbed into it.

==Special ships==

'''Defense Fighter''' A very specialized fighter craft designed solely to destroy projectiles, launched by enemy strike craft only. It uses a beam to destroy the projectile and is not powerful enough to stop ion-beams.

'''Defense Field Frigate''' Another specialized capital ship designed to perform the same purpose as the Defense Fighter, but on a much larger scale.
