The Sa-Matra (meaning Great Trophy in the Ur-Quan language) is the name given to the awesome Precursor Battleship discovered by the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za thousands of years ago. It is the very symbol of Ur-Quan dominance; a virtually invincible war machine that guarantees that the Ur-Quan species will never need know fear of anything. The battleship is the coveted prize given to the victor of the Ur-Quan Doctrinal Conflict. Its destruction is the only way to stop either Ur-Quan faction from dominating the galaxy.
