The Ayalam served as a Delta-class JV-7 escort shuttle and saw action with the Ripoblus contingent throughout the Sepan Civil War. In the midst of the First Battle of the Sepan system, this Escort Shuttle was deployed to thwart the capture of Modular conveyor group Asbo. This group held crucial war materials, notably Imperial ordnance, suspected to have been illicitly sold by Admiral Harkov, who, in a twist, spearheaded the capture operation. The Escort shuttle's mission to eliminate Stormtrooper transport group Epsilon failed when it was downed by Imperial combatants.
