I-BEAM Star Fighter

The I-BEAM Star Fighters were one of the two unique designs of ships used by the Galderian pirates. The resembles smaller B-Wings in appearances, although they filled a different role. It was not known who the creators of these fighters were, but they were believed to have been an advanced race enslaved by the Galderians. The fighter had decent fire power for a ship of its size, as well as excellent maneuverability. The Galderians generally held them about the Space ARC Star Cruisers, and they were launched from these ships by tractor beam projectors, rather than taking off like regular starfighters. When in storage, they were stored in groups of 6 (a full Rack), though it is assumed that a squadron was still 12 ships large. The ships were favoured by larger species due to the fact that the cockpit was deceptively large.
