Lieutenant Alexander McCarthy stole the prototype of the Avenger Laser cannon on the 15th January of 2335 while GTA forces were raiding the Vasudan cargo depot the prototypes were stored. He used a hijacked transport, designated as the GTT Omega to carry out his plans. After the mission, Galactic Terran Intelligence found proof that the GTT Omega did not follow its orders. Capturing McCarthy and retrieving the stolen plans became a primary objective for the GTA to complete.

The traitor was tracked down and captured while he was transfering the Avenger technology to his Vasudan contact, the PVFr Rasputin. All of McCarthy's loyalist pilots were killed by the GTA and himself was abducted and taken to a penal colony. After his capture, he was found guilty and taken into solitary confinement.

No canon information is known about the future of McCarthy, it is speculated he was not executed and survived the Great War
