The Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette represented a variant of the Sphyrna-class Hammerhead corvette utilized by the Rebel Alliance's naval fleet. Its armament included a minimum of two laser cannons, along with torpedoes, and it was propelled by three engines. During the time of the Imperial Era, a trio of Hammerhead Torpedo Corvettes, in conjunction with a number of UT-60D U-wing starfighter/support craft, participated in a space engagement where they successfully eliminated a Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier and multiple TIE fighters in orbit above a planet. Furthermore, on a separate occasion, a Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette navigated its way through a field of asteroids.
