The Laudable was a Venator-class Star Destroyer in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars. In 22 BBY, the Laudable was dispatched from the Republic's galactic capital of Coruscant, under the command of the Phuii Jedi General Ares Nune, to patrol the Phu system for Separatist activity. While on patrol, the Laudable task force—consisting of at least two other Star Destroyers—was attacked by the Malevolence, a Confederate warship equipped with two ion pulse cannons on each of its sides. Under the command of the Confederate General Grievous, the Malevolence took down the shields of the entire Republic fleet with its ion cannons. After doing so, the Malevolence proceeded to destroy Nune's task force, including the Laudable, using its turbolasers to obliterate the exposed ships.
