The Darius G-class freighter was a type of freighter commonly used throughout the galaxy.[5]
Characteristics
Edit
The ramp and cargo hold of a Darius G
A large ship capable of carrying large amounts of cargo, the Darius G possessed a chin mounted ramp that opened up into a long multi-roomed cargo hold with tall ceilings.[4] The Darius G also possessed two large cylindrical engines offset by two smaller engines, and sported four large stabilizers.[4][1] The main hallways of the Darius G were large and spacious, and contained several blast doors,[1] while the ship also possessed one-person escape pods of a narrow blocky design.[4] The Darius G was equipped with a number of these pods, with Teroj Kees ship holding eighteen escape pods on its ventral surface.[4]
HistoryEdit
During the cold war, Darius G-class freighters brought fuel shipments to the refueling station Colossus, on the ocean planet Castilon. The Colossus' fuel shipments aboard the freighters were a common prey for pirates.[3] Transport TY-700 was used to deliver Major Elrik Vonreg to the platform for negotiations with Captain Imanuel Doza.[6]
One Darius G-class freighter in the Castilon system, carrying Kowakian monkey-lizards and a Kowakian ape-lizard, was attacked by members of Kragan Gorr's Warbird gang. When the freighter sent out a distress call, Poe Dameron and Kazuda Xiono, who had been in a nearby asteroid field, went to investigate it.[1]

Later, Kazuda Xiono would follow Teroj Kee into a Darius G's cargo hold in pursuit of a stolen phase connector. Inside of the ship, Kazuda tricked the pet Gorg Bitey into biting a Power coupling that led to the ship's electrode systems, causing the ship to lose power and crash into the oceans of Castilon as all aboard abandoned ship in the Darius G escape pods.[4]

The Darius G-class was designed for the 2018 animated series Star Wars Resistance. The art asset was created by Jason Pichon.[2]
