The Operation Argo was the military attack carried by New Republic forces that achieved the liberation of the Gas Giant Adbauniac from Black Sun.[1] Adbauniac was a planet located in the Brak Sector, Skone System (northern area of the galaxy) and according to the current galactic coordinate system it corresponds to Gazari II.

Historians managed to put their hands on declassified information sources, and the following records include views from the NR side of the events.

Preparations

On Year 12 Day 109 New Republic's High Ambassador Cheda Quche sealed a trade with the Old Republic, acquiring a group of posts and facilities that were used in a failed attack against Black Sun in Adbauniac planet.

Chief of State Taka Aioko, who was selected as the Galactic Alliance's Secretary General on Year 12 Day 62 and after having led Operation Blackbeard just a couple of months before, started planning the attack along with Battle Group Commander Wedge Achilles.

The plan basically had two phases. First, infiltrating the planet unnoticed to restart the rebellion attempts that had failed in the past, and second, securing the territory over two weeks later.

Skone System Infiltration

On Year 12 Day 118 Chief of State Aioko, piloting the BFF-1 Bulk Freighter "Babieca", and Minister of State Franco Nejo, piloting the YT-1210 'Road Runner', entered the Skone system from the east. When they arrived to the system they discovered that Black Sun had the system covered with a grid of satellites and they also had many ships stationed near Adbauniac.

The list of Black Sun ships dectected was composed by:

- 3 MC-80bs.
- 1 MC-80a (stationed at Adbauniac's orbit).
- 2 Kaloth Battlecruisers (one of them also stationed at Adbauniac's orbit).
- 1 Lictor-class Dungeon.
- 2 Bayonet-class Light Cruisers.
- 58 Y-Wing BTL-S3s.
- 24 Vipers.
- 1 R-41 Starchaser.
- 1 Pursuer Enforcement Ship.
- 1 Delta-Class JV-7 Escort Shuttle.

As soon as they exited hyperspace, both CoS Aioko and MoS Nejo rushed to Adbauniac's surface, coordinates (0,0), where the construction efforts were planned. Taka was transporting more than a thousand engineers that he helped putting to work on the facilities that were abandoned by the Old Republic forces some time ago. Franco offered support with the YT's long range sensors, and he was also in charge of scanning the four enemy outposts. A R-41 Starchaser was detected in the ally outpost were construction was restarted.

No new construction was started nor enemy facilities were depowered in order to avoid alerting Black Sun forces. During a little over two weeks Taka and Franco stayed in the planet organizing construction to finish at the same time, while two battle groups were left on call in case Black Sun started arresting in the area, but that never happened.
