Delta-6 Sprite-class starfighter

Delta-6 starfighter The Delta-6 starfighter was a short-range light starfighter used by the Jedi Order during the time of the Invasion of Naboo. It was the ancestor of the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class interceptor.

Characteristics
The Delta-6, manufactured by Kuat Systems Engineering, was a short-range patrol and reconnaissance interceptor, able to hold one pilot. This model lacked an on-board astromech droid for in-flight navigational assistance. It was armed with twin laser cannons, located on either side of the tapering, delta-shaped nose. These models were painted with a bronze and silver finish.

History
The model evolved from the earliest Jedi starfighter concepts, dating back to the time of the Great Sith War and the Jedi Civil War.

Prior to the onset of the Clone Wars, Kuat Systems Engineering unveiled the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class interceptor&mdash;the latest craft in the Delta line&mdash;thus rendering the Delta-6 obsolete. Any Delta-6 starfighters that survived into the Galactic Civil War would have become the property of Sienar Fleet Systems, when the company bought the entire Delta line from Kuat ten years after the Clone Wars.
