Saw Gerrera, the Onderonian freedom fighter and head of the Partisans, possessed a shuttle during the Imperial Era. This vessel of Gerrera's was utilized in combat during the Campaign at Salient, where he and his forces battled against the Galactic Empire's Naval forces.
In the year 13 BBY, after Lyra Erso, her mother, was killed and her father, the scientist Galen Erso, was captured, Gerrera took in the young Jyn Erso. He piloted his craft to the Erso family's farm-homestead located on the planet Lah'mu within the Raioballo sector, where he saved the young Jyn and brought her into his organization.
