The raid on an Imperial cargo convoy was a shipping raid during the Galactic Civil War which took place about nine months after the Battle of Yavin.

A crime organization on the planet Per Lupelo had learned of an Imperial cargo convoy passing close by and were preparing to hijack it. However, a spy within the syndicate tipped off the Rebel Alliance, which sent a group of Limpet ships supported by X-wings to intercept the convoy. This marked the first use of the Limpet ships.

The X-wings eliminated the TIE escort, leaving the cargo ships all but defenseless. The Rebel operatives Able and Basso led a team of SpecForce Marines into one of the cargo ships, using the Limpet's connect-and-slice arms. The boarders captured the ship's crew and gained its cargo for the Rebellion.

Soon, the other three cargo ships were captured as well, and the Alliance was victorious.
