Equipped as a specialized command ship, the SLS McKenna's Pride led the SLDF Commanding General's squadron, one of three line squadrons within the SLDF First Fleet during the Star League era, and was the only one of the six such specialized vessels to survive the Amaris Civil War.[1] It was the flagship of Aleksandr Kerensky,[2][3] and the lead ship in Operation Exodus.[4]

The McKenna's Pride was present at Kerensky's final assault on Terra.[5] After the Amaris Civil War ended, medics aboard the McKenna's Pride treated Jerome Blake. Alexandr Kerensky met Blake at this time and they became friendly.[6] The ship also housed the remains of Stefan Amaris before his body was donated to a medical school.[7]

During the Prinz Eugen Rebellion, the McKenna's Pride led the task force that ran down the rebel ships.

Following the founding of the Clans, the vessel was kept in orbit around Strana Mechty and maintained by all of the Clans, serving as Aleksandr Kerensky's tomb.[8]

It was reactivated in 3075 during the Wars of Reaving, partaking in a multi-Clan action to annihilate Clan Steel Viper at the head of the fleet attacking New Kent in December. On 22 December its batteries opened up on the city of New Kent City from orbit, eradicating the last Clan Steel Viper holding and concluding that Clan's annihilation.
