"I want a Rogue-class starfighter, with elite weapons, cloaking device, the works. Oh, and triple my usual rate."

The Rogue-class starfighter was a starfighter model adapted from the Utapauan Porax-38 starfighter by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars.

History

RogueClassFighters-TCWf — *Rogue*-class fighters flown by IG-100 MagnaGuards

During the Clone Wars, when Anakin Skywalker arrived at Tatooine to return Rotta to Jabba Desilijic Tiure, the Twilight he appropriated from Asajj Ventress was attacked by a pair of Rogues piloted by IG-100 MagnaGuards, who disabled it before being destroyed themselves.

Bounty hunter Cad Bane also owned a Rogue. It was heavily modified and was called Xanadu Blood. The Confederacy gave it to Bane as a partial payment for his work on their behalf. The original Porax-38 was designed for the shorter Utai species and would have had to be adapted to the height of the much taller MagnaGuards.

Behind the scenes

Although the starfighter seen in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series greatly resembles the Porax-38 starfighter model, it was mentioned as a "Rogue-class starfighter" in the episode "Holocron Heist." The 2011 publication Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Incredible Vehicles eventually retconed all of the Porax-38's appearances in The Clone Wars by identifying the Rogue-class as an entirely different model.
