- "These jet-wings are for spraying fertilizers, Master—not attacking droid ships!"
- ―Ahsoka Tano, to Anakin Skywalker
Jet-wings were a model of silver and blue flying vehicle used on the moon Gall to spray fertilizers on crops. They consisted of a long sleek body, which housed the single pilot in an open-air cockpit, and a pair of wings located above the body at the back of the vehicle. The wings were attached to the circular rear of the vehicle by six struts.
During the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, used jet-wings during a battle on Gall. While their own vehicles were refueling, the pair used the jet-wings to avoid the sensors of the Separatist craft leading and shielding the other Separatist vessels. They breached the ship's shields, landing the jet-wings on its surface and dismounting, after which the vehicles were destroyed.[1]
