Capsule: The Mestapol Zephyer Light Combat Fighter was available on the market at least some time after the Battle of Endor (but before the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn [5 years after Endor]). One such fighter called the Blood Hawk was owned by a smuggler named Vohrkrewel Yahrkar. In the Isen System the Blood Hawk in a surprise attack, destroyed a damaged Star Galleon, whose shields were at one-half efficiency and two-thirds of the turbolasers were concentrated on protecting the ship from asteroid strikes.
