The shuttle was used to transport various Rebellion units and dignitaries across the galaxy. It was only lightly armed and could not protect itself well against enemy attacks, so it almost always required an escort.
The RM-09 was similar in appearance to the Republic Troop Transport, used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars.
A number of these shuttles were used during the siege of an Imperial installation over Corulag, where they would deploy infantry into the space station to search for information on the Death Star.
