Notes
- Although apparently 1,000 yahrens older, the design of the sixth-millennium starfighter is extremely similar to that of the Colonial Viper. The sixth-millennium starfighter fuselage is much more squat and has two engines rather than three. It, like the Viper, is armed with a pair of laser cannons.
