The Commerce Guild corvette was a warship employed by the Commerce Guild prior to and during the Clone Wars as a patrol and security vessel. These craft were armed with turbolaser batteries.
At least two Guild corvettes were stationed at the Commerce Guild mining facility on the asteroid known as Escarte towards the end of the Clone Wars. When Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi attempted to infiltrate the facility to rescue the Bith Thal K'sar, their Republic cruiser was waylaid by a Guild corvette and its escorting patrol craft. Anakin managed to outfly the corvette, but the Republic cruiser was caught by the facility's powerful tractor beam.
Once aboard the facility, the Jedi rescued K'sar and their contact, Travale, and fled Escarte and its corvettes.
