History[edit]

The Avenging Sword was an Aegis-class WarShip which in 3062 was a part of the Com Guard Second Independent Squadron deployed in the Draconis Combine in 3061 and then the St. Ives Compact in 3062, where it operated in conjunction with SLDF peacekeeping forces.[3] The CSV Avenging Sword remained in service with ComStar as of 3067.[4]

In 3068, it was deployed on the ill-fated Case White attack on Terra,[5] where it was the first WarShip to be destroyed by the defenders on 13 March.[1][2]
