Composition
Edit
Led by Lieutenant Commander Lorth Needa, it consisted of three Carrack-class cruisers—Integrity, Indomitable, and Perseverance—with the support of the Dreadnaught-class cruiser Mas Ramdar.
History
Edit
The strike group participated in the Battle of Coruscant against the Separatist fleet. During the final stages of the battle, Strike Group Five deployed in a triangle around the Mas Ramdar, and attacked the Separatist flagship Invisible Hand with full force.
As a result, the Mas Ramdar was blown to bits, and the Indomitable became a mere shell. All that remained were the Integrity and the Perseverance. The Strike Group trapped the Invisible Hand, with Needa ordering Grievous's surrender. The General refused, and the Venator-class Star Destroyer Guarlara subsequently damaged the Invisible Hand critically—damage which ultimately lead to her demise.
