Lanupan security vessels were compact starfighters designed to escort arriving starships to[2] Skull Ridge Mountain Hotel & Spa.[3] These vessels operated in pairs, each piloted by a single individual.[1]
Around 9 ABY,[4] a pair of security vessels escorted the starship[1] of the Skeleton Crew,[5] the Onyx Cinder. Some time later, another pair attempted to escort a pirate transport but were destroyed by a blast from another pirate craft. The attacking ships carried pirates intent on capturing Jod Na Nawood,[1] a member of the Skeleton Crew.[5]
Behind the scenes
Lanupan security vessels first appeared in "You Have a Lot to Learn About Pirates," a Star Wars: Skeleton Crew episode[1] released on December 24, 2024.[6]

- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian" of The Mandalorian Season One to 9 ABY. In addition,
"A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 also dates "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Timelines. "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" takes place after the conflict on Mandalore, which is the main event depicted in "Chapter 23: The Spies" and "Chapter 24: The Return," the final two episodes of The Mandalorian Season Three. Therefore, Seasons One through Three of Star Wars: The Mandalorian must all be set in 9 ABY as well.
SWCA 2022: 20 Highlights from Lucasfilm's Studio Showcase on StarWars.com (backup link) states that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew takes place in the same timeframe as Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Star Wars: Ahsoka—the latter of which can also be dated to 9 ABY following the reasoning here. As such, Skeleton Crew must take place around 9 ABY as well.
