Lusankya sacrifices itself in the final moments of Operation Emperor's Spear
Operation Emperor's Spear was a battle tactic used by Wedge Antilles and the Insiders at the Third Battle of Borleias. Because Lusankya had already taken severe damage in the defense of Borleias, it was decided that she would be used in a final suicide mission against the worldship in command of Yuuzhan Vong forces in the Pyria system. The plan involved installing a giant reinforced lance into the center of Lusankya, filling it with explosives, and ramming the ship into the Domain Hul worldship. Lusankya had long before had its weapons stripped and donated to smaller ships. Commander Eldo Davip successfully steered the bow of the ship and pierced deep into the enemy's hull. He managed to escape from the Ship shortly before the collision. The force of the resulting detonation was so great as to destroy both the Vong ship and Lusankya itself.
