H-60 Tempest bomber/Legends



The H-60 Tempest bomber was a bomber developed during the last decades of the Galactic Republic and later used by the Rebel Alliance, with some from Ord Bueri kept in reserve at their main base on Yavin IV.

They looked like larger versions of the later B-wing starfighter, but lacked the folding wings. They also had a different engine-configuration to that of their descendant, and a cockpit on each end, which were detachable. The Tempest may have been a Slayn & Korpil design.

Trivia


As seen in Dorling Kindersley factbooks, the look of the H-60 Tempest was inspired by early concept art depicting a much sleeker B-wing starfighter, made during the production of RotJ in the early 80s.
