Svelte-class Imperial shuttle

Svelte-class Imperial Shuttle

Created in the years subsequent Palpatine's demise, the Svelte-class Imperial shuttle was desiggned as a more aggressive replacement for the fractured Empire's aging Lambda-class shuttle. The Silviut Corporation leveraged its experience as a subcontractor  to craft a superior vessel, capable of both long-range transport and space combat support. While inferior to a true starfighter, the Svelte-class shuttle was capably maneuverable and well-armed for a shuttle. Often dubbed the "Vader-class" shuttle by Imperial pilots, the shuttle's black finish indeed gave it the appearance of a reminiscent space-borne beetle or the famous Sith Lord.
