Dao's flagship

Canon Legends version → Linked from 4 articles

Admiral Dao operated a Venator-class Star Destroyer as his flagship, active as part of the Galactic Republic's naval forces. Using it to command a relief supply fleet, the flagship was stationed above the planet Ryloth during the Clone Wars in 22 BBY. The Star Destroyer fought to hold off the Separatist Alliance's blockade of warship that had launched an invasion of Ryloth.

In the battle, Dao's flagship had suffered critical damages to its essential systems and was dangerously low on fuel and ammunition. Left without protective shielding and a functioning reactor, the Venator was destroyed alongside its accompanying one and giving the Separatists control over Ryloth's orbit. After the fleet was lost, the Republic ran a secret supply operation to Ryloth, launched from the planet Toydaria.
