N-1 starfighter/Legends

The Naboo Royal N-1 starfighter was a starfighter used by the government of Naboo for defense, patrol, and escort duties.

The sleek and deadly vessel was manufactured by Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps, the group responsible for manufacturing Naboo royal starships.

Details
The Nubian-1 starfighter featured the best elements of Naboo design, being aesthetically sound and adhering to the Naboo's love for curves and aerodynamic shapes. A chromium finish on the front of the vehicle would gleam in the sunlight during parades and celebratory fly-bys. This chromium was purely decorative and reserved for starships serving the Naboo Royal House. The finish contrasted sharply with rest of the N-1, which was yellow in color.

The citizens of Naboo were dedicated to the defense of their ecologically sensitive world, and the N-1 was an example of this commitment. Its specialized engine system ensured that fuel would burn hotter in order to reduce harmful emissions. An advanced cooling system which incorporated several heat sinks along the engine finials prevented overheating. The rear finial could be connected to special outlets in Naboo hangars to recharge the craft and transmit important data, even coded mission profiles.



The N-1's roles included reconnaissance/patrol missions, escort duty, system defense, and ceremonial functions. In order to accompany the Queen's starship to Coruscant or other distant planets, each N-1 was fitted with a Nubian Monarch C-4 hyperdrive with a range of 1,000 light years. When this was insufficient, the escort fighters could recharge in transit via the Naboo Royal Cruiser's under-wing docking sockets. The pilot was protected by advanced life support systems and deflector shields, aided by an astromech droid that would help the pilot with repairs and adjustments. The N-1 starfighter was also equipped with an advanced autopilot that could receive navigational information from hangar outlets or from Naboo flight control. In a crisis, the autopilot could bring the craft to the site of an emergency or pilot the ship home safely. The N-1's weapons were twin laser cannons and a full complement of 10 proton torpedoes. These were powerful enough to allow the N-1 to engage even the Vulture droids of the Trade Federation Droid Control Ship as was required during the Battle of Naboo.
