Legend

this was the first of Corellian Engineering Corporation's YV-series transports, produced during the early years of the New Order. Technically, the YV-series was superior to the popular YT-series, but lacked the YT's upgradability. The YV-100 was shaped like an arrowhead, with a box-like cockpit mounted on a central spine. The main hull resembled that of the YT-1300, while two large sublight engines and two ion engines were mounted across the flatten rear section. Although the ship was moderately powered, this allowed CEC to sell the ships at a reduced cost. At 46.5 meters in length, the YV-100 was one of the larger ships produced in this YV series, and it required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. It could transport up to ten passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with a pair of blaster cannons and two laser cannons.
