The Action VI transport typically operated in convoys or in well patrolled areas of space, since they lacked even the most basic forms of self-defensive measures, and had to rely on protection from other capital ships. The only reason they were used by the Galactic Empire, was because they were quite inexpensive (relative to Imperial wealth).

The Rebel Alliance also employed these cargo vessels, but in much smaller quantities since they were far more expensive than GR-75 Medium Transports. Most Action VIs were stolen from the Empire.

The most famous Action VI was the Wild Karrde, the personal starhip owned by smuggler Talon Karrde.
