Defender-class light corvette

Vanguard starfighter The Vanguard was an experimental starfighter built by Rendili Vehicle Corporation on Corellia for use by the Jedi Order during the Great Galactic War. The ship itself had a gleaming silver and red hull, and was propelled by two circular twin thrusters. The cockpit rested in a hammerhead-style outcropping, similar to those of Republic Thranta-class warships. The interior of the vessel boasted a state-of-the-art holocommunications terminal and lush furnishings, as well as backlit controls in the cockpit, allowing for dimmer lighting.

The first of these vessels produced was to be test-piloted by a member of the Jedi Order. Before the Jedi arrived however, the ship was infiltrated by Hylo Visz, a Mirialan smuggler who had been betrayed by the Rendili Corporation. Visz attempted to steal the ship, but was interrupted when the Jedi client arrived for the test flight. The smuggler was determined to pilfer the experimental project however, and so assaulted and incapacitated the Jedi. After dumping him on Landing pad A-23 of the Rendili Corporate facility, Visz departed Corellia and used the ship as her own personal smuggling vessel.
