Attack on the Defiance

Edit
Blue-question-mark

The title of this article is conjectural.

Although this article is based on official information from the Star Wars Legends continuity, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

This article is about the battle in 0 BBY. You may be looking for another Battle of Bestine (disambiguation).

An attack on the Defiance took place in the Bestine system during the Galactic Civil War.

Prelude[]

During Operation Skyhook, the Empire made a surprise attack on the command ship Defiance near Bestine IV, site of an important Rebel base. The Imperial-class Star Destroyer Immortal just ended its hyperdrive jump next to the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser Defiance.

The battle[]

The Star Destroyer Immortal entered the system and deployed its TIEs. Red Squadron's X-wings and Blue Squadron's A-wings managed to destroy many Imperial starfighters and allowed the Defiance to escape in hyperspace.
