History[edit]

The Vincent Mk. 42-class Corvette Azov was a Clan Smoke Jaguar WarShip. Following the Jaguars' rout during Operation BULLDOG the Azov was one of the Clan's three surviving WarShips in Galaxy Commander Hang Mehta's retreating forces.[1]

When Mehta's ad hoc force returned to Clan Space in 3060, the Azov took the lead in engaging Task Force Serpent's fleet over Huntress. She inflicted light damage upon the Invisible Truth before racing past to duel with the Emerald and Starlight. In the ensuing battle the Azov was rammed by the Starlight and both vessels were destroyed.[2]
