In the end, it was the Delta-7 starfighters, piloted by Jedi Knights, that proved to be the deciding factor in the battle. Although taking casualties, Belsed-Qan Idan and his task force were successful in breaking up the Iridium pirates. However, this was only one small skirmish, a precursor to the full-fledged war between the Separatists and the Republic, a war that would call on Belsed-Qan Idan once more to protect peace and justice throughout the galaxy.
