The Heist of the Avenger Prototype was a treasonous act materialized by Lieutenant Alexander McCarthy. The Avenger Prototype was hidden in a Vasudan cargo depot which later came under GTA attack. McCarthy, flying an Elysium-class transport designated Omega, already knew about the existance and the location of the prototypes. Instead of return the cargo to Terran Command, he escaped with the weapon prototypes. He intended to give those plans to the Vasudans, already knowing about the adversary later designated as Shivans.
It was realized that not all craft had returned from the mission: McCarthy's Omega transport and a number of fighters. They were considered traitors to the GTA and are to be apprehended. A squadron of fighters were sent after them to disable Omega and bring the prototypes back to Terran space.
This mission was the first deployment of the GTF Valkyrie-class fighter, which has proven its usefulness against slower Apollo-class fighters. The traitorous fighters were destroyed and Omega was disabled before McCarthy could escape. The traitor's transport was captured by another Elysium-class and McCarthy was taken prisoner.
