TL-1800 freighter

TL-1800 freighter "That's a Suwantek."

- Colonel Somoril

The TL-1800 freighter was a light freighter manufactured by Suwantek Systems.

Characteristics
The wide-bodied 30 meter long ship could carry 110 tons of cargo in its internal cargo bay, but could also attach four external cargo pods to its hull, which each had an additional capacity of 100 tons. This gave the TL-1800 an exceptional cargo capacity for its size, exceeding that of significantly larger ships such as the Etti-class light transport and the YZ-775. However, these pods reduced the already sluggish freighter's limited speed and maneuverability, and only one pod could be carried during atmospheric flight.

The TL-1800 was also notable for its highly efficient Y-v-6 sublight engines and StarBurn 4 hyperdrive, which could operate for a year or more without a major overhaul.

History
TL-1800 freighters were occasionally used by the Imperial Security Bureau. One, the Gillia, was used by Daric LaRone on his escape from the Imperial Star Destroyer Reprisal.
