Juno (freighter group)




Farlander's assault on the Juno 3 freighter Juno designated a trio of BFF-1 bulk freighters, utilized by the Imperial Navy during the era of the Galactic Civil War.

In the course of Operation Strike Fear, occurring not long after the Battle of Brigia, the Imperial-class Star Destroyer known as the Invincible required essential supplies prior to its planned offensive on Rudrig. The CR90 corvette named Ranger, accompanied by the Juno freighters, formed a supply convoy. This convoy transported droids (aboard Juno 1), provisions (Juno 2), and industrial equipment (Juno 3) to the Invincible, all under the protection of a TIE fighter escort.

This convoy became the target of an assault by a Rebel strike force. Initially, two X-wings from Red Squadron, piloted by Keyan Farlander and Sunnar Jan-lo, engaged and diverted the convoy's escort. Shortly thereafter, two Y-wings from Blue Squadron arrived and launched an attack on the now-exposed convoy. All three freighters suffered complete destruction.

The resulting loss of the convoy caused a delay in Operation Strike Fear, setting it back by several weeks.
