Priam (starship)

Priam was a Nebulon-B escort frigate of the Galactic Empire and later the Rebel Alliance and eventually the New Republic.

The Priam came under Rebel attack whilst docked in an Imperial Repair Dock near Kalla VII. After destroying their Escort Corvettes Dar Es, and the mines laid around the frigate, the Rebels sent Y-Wings with an A-Wing escort to disable the frigate. As soon as Priam exited hyperspace, she collided with Breth Gart's ship, killing him instantly.

After losing many Y-Wings, the Priam was disabled and the captured by Rebel troops by the transport Jordi and the Lambda-class shuttles Panda.

The capture of Priam revealed to the Alliance that the location of the Death Star was Despayre.

An Imperial counterassualt to destroy the captured Priam was repulsed although the Priam was badly damaged before it entered hyperspace.
