During the Cold War, a battle occurred in the Balosar system between the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire. Members of the Coruscant Aegis Squadron, supported by the Republic navy, attempted to destroy an Imperial space station, which was defended by several ships of the Imperial Navy. The Empire had, according to SIS analysis, illegally constructed the hidden space station in the republic-aligned Balosar system to act as a staging point for covert assaults on Republic territories. The Republic learned of this and sent all available forces, consisting of three Thranta-class corvettes and a starfighter escort, to destroy the space station. Resistance was however fiercer than expected and the Coruscant Aegis Squadron was called in as reinforcements.
