Lancer (corvette)

"The captain of the Lancer requests clearance to depart. He thinks he can slip past the enemy blockade, and worries his ship would be vulnerable to New Republic fighters if he stays&mdash;"

- Ensign Nagry

The Lancer was a corvette in the navy of the Galactic Empire. During a New Republic attack on Pandem Nai in the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, the Lancer was present above the planet. Its captain felt that he was at risk, requesting clearance to depart from Colonel Shakara Nuress aboard the Orbital One space station. Nuress refused, knowing the New Republic would not target the Lancer, and ordered the starship to be recalled into low orbit.
