At 13 meters in length, the Republic Fleet Systems Star Saber XC-01 starfighter is long, low, and sleek. Protruding from the narrow hull were two wings fitted with weapons outriggers; two fins emerge from the tail of the craft above the two engines. A military snubfighter available to civilians only through regulated sales, the Star Saber is equipped with deflector shields and two heavy blaster cannons—weapons that are significant improvements over those of the fighter's contemporaries. A single-seat craft, with 45 kilograms of cargo capacity, the fighter nonetheless is equipped with a Class 2.0 hyperdrive and a week's worth of consumables. While the Star Saber is quite fast at sublight speeds, capable of attaining 1,100 kilometers per hour in atmosphere and accelerating to such speeds in mere seconds, the craft is ungainly and not nearly as maneuverable as other fighters of its period - Krath CX-133 Chaos fighters, for example, can outmaneuver them with ease. However, due to the needs of the time, the Galactic Republic has pressed the fighters into service, despite knowing their flaws. This particular model is largely flown by Jedi, who can compensate by using the Force for the fighter's endemic design problems.
