Rescue 1

Rescue 1 was a Lambda-class shuttle used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War.

When the Rebels learned that some of Bevel Lemelisk's Death Star design team were leaving Coruscant on the CR90 corvette Godar, after a meeting with Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, and being transferred to the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Immortal, Hamo Blastwell planned a mission to capture them en route. Rescue 1 was dispatched, along with a Y-wing from Red Squadron, flown by Keyan Farlander and two X-wings from Blue Squadron to carry out the mission. The Rebels hoped that their capture would slow down the completion of the Death Star.

The Immortal launched TIEs to assist the escorting Assault Gunboats, but the Rebel fighters were able to hold off the Imperials while Farlander disabled the Godar and Rescue 1 conducted the boarding operation. After Rescue 1 captured the personnel and fled into hyperspace, Farlander destroyed the Godar before following the other Rebels.
