History

Part of Imperial reconnaissance force, led by the Modified Frigate Strider, tracking the Star Destroyer Prometheus, in preparation for launching an assault.

Engaged Republic Shield forces led by the Star Destroyer Prometheus, but Republic Shield reinforcements hampered the assault efforts. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (IBG208)

Behind the Scenes

This ship was originally named the Protector; however this name was already used by the Victory-class Star Destroyer flagship of Admiral Harkov, which was destroyed by Imperial forces after defecting to the Rebel Alliance. Retroactively renamed by the Logistics Office.
