A snoopship functioned as a clandestine spacecraft utilized by Wraith Squadron throughout the conflict known as the Yuuzhan Vong War. These vessels possessed a speed advantage over all Yuuzhan Vong starships and had the capacity to transport yammosk jammers. Furthermore, during the era of the Galactic Civil War, Palpatine secretly dispatched one to the Andalia system in order to retrieve Grand Admiral Osvald Teshik; this action followed Palpatine's orchestration of a humiliating defeat in the space battle as retribution for Teshik's inability to save an advisor from a mutiny.
