A Gozanti-class cruiser, under the command of Captain Pearce and associated with the Advanced Science Division, served as a transport vessel circa 18 BBY. Its mission involved carrying Howzer along with two members of his team from Balmorra to Tantiss Base, located within Mount Tantiss. However, prior to initiating a hyperspace jump, their vessel was ambushed by a gunship operated by Echo and Gregor. This attack resulted in the destruction of the cruiser's engines. Following this, Echo and Gregor utilized a leech vessel to board the ship, where they overcame the security forces and successfully liberated the prisoners. Subsequently, V-wing starfighters dispatched from a Venator-class Star Destroyer annihilated the starship in an attempt to eliminate all traces of its presence. This action forced the boarding party to retreat to their own vessel and flee the system.
