Godar, operating within the Imperial Navy during the era of the Galactic Civil War, was a CR90 corvette.
Not long before the Death Star I was finished, the Godar picked up certain members of Bevel Lemelisk's design staff. These individuals were coming from a meeting on Coruscant with Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, and the Godar's mission was to transport them to the Imperial-class Star Destroyer named Immortal.
During a prior mission, the Alliance to Restore the Republic had become aware of this planned transfer. Consequently, in an operation devised by Hamo Blastwell, they deployed a Y-wing piloted by Keyan Farlander from Red Squadron, together with two X-wings from Blue Squadron, and the Lambda-class shuttle known as Rescue 1. Their objective was to seize the Godar prior to its rendezvous with the Immortal, with the hope of delaying the Death Star's completion.
To aid the escorting Assault Gunboats, the Immortal dispatched TIEs; however, the Rebel pilots successfully fended off the Imperial forces. Meanwhile, Farlander managed to disable the Godar, enabling Rescue 1 to execute its boarding operation. Following the capture of the personnel and Rescue 1's jump to hyperspace, Farlander proceeded to destroy the Godar before joining the other Rebels in their escape.
