Retreated from Republic Shield reconnaissance forces, but was tracked down by Republic Shield forces near an asteroid field. Attacked by Republic Shield forces who intended to disable the vessel and then capture it with forces from the shuttle Swift Ride. However, the setup was an Imperial trap, with the Frigate Falcata leading Imperial reinforcements to force the attacking forces to withdraw. However, before the attacking vessels departed they decided to deny Imperial forces access to the convoy cargo. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (PBF507)
