With local space temporarily clear of enemy forces, the two Republic squadrons made good their escape, jumping to hyperspace in order to rendezvous with the task force under the command of Rear Admiral Kedlis Hetton. Though the raid itself was intended as a minor diversion, it provided a morale boost for the soldiers, officers, and pilots of Hetton's force, which included the Marines' Third Battalion. In addition, it provided necessary battle experience for the starfighter units involved. This was a contributing factor to the success of the victory won at the Zabrak homeworld of Iridonia, which led to the successful defense of Rodia and the Republic counteroffensive that would follow.
