Davaab-type starfighter

Davaab-type starfighter "We need to know what utreekov parked the Davaab fighter on top of the -- what is this? The Highport Banking Tower. We need the space for the new receiver platform. Get up here and get your ship before we push it over the side."

- Koblus Sornell

The Davaab-type starfighter was used by the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders during the Mandalorian Wars.

Characteristics


An 8.8 meter two-person craft, they boasted asymmetrical wings: a longer, bent fin-shape wing and a shorter wing with a cannon. A bubble canopy allowed the pilot to see his immediate surroundings.

The craft was designed to land with each wing rotated horizontally, similar to the operation of the B-wing starfighter millennia later.

The design of the fighter also vaguely resembled the Miy'til and Ginivex-class starfighters of the Clone Wars era.

History
A number of these fighters fought in the Battle of Vanquo and later in the Invasion of Taris. Following the subjugation of the Upper City, these fighters patrolled the skylanes while the ground troops moved to the lower levels of the planet-wide city.
