The Botajef Defense Force served as the planetary defense force for the Outer Rim world of Botajef. This defense force consisted of seven squadrons of V-19 Torrent starfighters along with a pair of CR90 corvettes. This force was activated to oppose the Galactic Empire's forces after Governor Quesl announced the planet's separation from the Empire; however, the rebellion concluded when Commodore Thrawn exposed the entire event as a deception to enable the theft of a collection of exceedingly precious Jefi artwork, leading to Quesl's capture.
