Airam Platform

Airam Platform was a XQ1 Platform used by the Airam, where the Galactic Empire tried to capture a Alliance to Restore the Republic diplomat meeting Airam leaders during Operation: Clean Sweep.

In an attempt to deny Airam joining the Rebel Alliance, the Empire sent a strike force consisting of Assault Gunboats and Gamma-class ATR-6 assault transports to capture the ambassador's ship (the CR90 corvette Intrepid), with orders to plant explosives on the Corvette afterwards.

This incident took place prior to the formation of Imperial Task Force Vengeance, but could be seen as prelude, or perhaps first step, in the conflicting Rebel Alliance campaigns in the Airam sector.
