What is a prefabricated base exactly?

From various non-canon sources we know that ISD carry a few "prefabricated bases".

What are "prefabricated bases" exactly? I mean how big is it? What does it consist of? What are its defences? How is it deployed, etc.

first it's C-Level Canon (N-level is irrelevant) and far as I can tell it's rapid deploy base that can be used house a small garrison with probaly only limited self-defence weapon (E-web and maybe some AT/AA weapons.) (nte I don't know the exact specs).

It can hold 40 TIEs, has 3 double TL cannon, and 6 twin laser cannon IIRC. I can't recall how many stormtroopers can be housed. A prefab garrison is a substantial defensive postition.

ISD hold at least one(perhaps more) prefabricated bases. The 40 TIE you mentioned, is it inclusive or exclusive of the 72 fighters already stationed on the ISD?

I would say it depends mode of deployment of said bases. after an ISD has enough space to hold more craft then 72 (an Nimitz-class carrier has airwing of 85 (IIRC) and it only about 300 m).

When Vader threatened to leave a garrison on Bespin, was this the kind of base he was referring to?

I don't think so. I'm guessing that he meant leaving a permanent Imperial presence in the City.

An order of Prefabricated garrison base straight from the GE databank.

Probably not. Bespin had all facilities so all that would be required would be a garisson.

I don't know if you count games also. But in Force Commander in cut scenes and in game you can see and have a prefabricated base. That thing is put down by a really big machine resembling a carryall from Dune and the building is operational at once.
