The Dauntless^[1] was an Imperial I-class Star Destroyer that was in service of the Galactic Empire. The Star Destroyer was stationed above Jedha City^[6] in 1 BBY^[7] after Imperial Intelligence claimed a single destroyer would shut down any resistance to the Empire's presence on Jedha.^[8] Instead, the conflict continued. The destroyer left soon after the Battle on Jedha so that the Death Star could commence a test fire of its superlaser on the city.^[6]
