The '''''Hideyoshi''''' was a [[Draconis Combine]] DropShip assigned to the [[5th Ghost|5th]] and [[6th Ghost|Sixth Ghost Regiments]] counterstrike against the [[Federated Suns]] forces occupying the Combine world of [[Biham]] during the [[War of 3039]]. At that time the vessel was under the command of [[Captain]] [[Basil Hamel]], the remainder of its primary bride crew Navigation Officer [[Lisa McMurray]], Weapons Operator [[Kanako Mobil]], Sensor Operator [[James Sakura]], Pilot [[Rica Zanza]] and Systems Officer [[Thomas Laurey]]. <ref name=HWo3039-81>''Historical: War of 3039'', pp. 81-82 "Wave Two and Counterattack - Biham (July-September)"</ref> <ref name=HWo3039-82>''Historical: War of 3039'', pp. 81-82 "Wave Two and Counterattack - Biham (July-September) - Blood and Sacrifice"</ref>

Part of a Combine picket-line in orbit around the planet, the ''Hideyoshi'' encountered the [[Laurel's Legion]] when the [[mercenary unit]] abandoned the world on August 27th [[3039]] and attempted to fight their way through the Combine forces in orbit. Focusing on the Legion's ''[[Achilles (DropShip class)|Achilles]]''-class ''[[Veracity]]'', the ''Hideyoshi'' successfully scored a series of heavy hits against the vessel and seemingly crippled the mercenary DropShip. However, while doomed, the ''Veracity'''s drive system was still functional, the ''Veracity'' launching [[escape pod]]s to save some of its crew before the remainder aimed their ship at the ''Hideyoshi''. <ref name=HWo3039-81/> <ref name=HWo3039-82/>

Its drive and maneuvering systems redlining as its crew unsuccessfully attempted to evade it, the ''Hideyoshi'' was rammed by the ''Veracity'' full-force. Suffering multiple hull breaches and its internal structure and drive system failing, Captain Hamel desperately gave the order to abandon ship moments before the ''Hideyoshi'''s reactor went critical. The ship was lost with all hands, the final moments on the bridge of the ''Hideyoshi'' revealed by its recovered black box recorder.<ref name=HWo3039-81/> <ref name=HWo3039-82/>
