Orlean Star Cab



The Orlean Star Explorer (colloquially known as the Star Cab) was, and is an exploration vessel. Star Cabs are frequently crewed by droids, presumably to minimize consumption of air, water, and food during long surveys. The standard navigation droid equipped on Star Cabs may have been an ancient predecessor to the R2-series astromech droid.

Star Cabs originated early enough in Galactic history that hyperdrive units were not yet completely reliable. A Star Cab's Class 10 hyperdrive is a far more common speed for a backup hyperdrive (which the Star Cab lacks entirely).

Star Cabs are usually heavily armed, considering the wilder state of the Galaxy in their heyday. (However, they lack shields, possibly due to technological constraints at the time of their original manufacture.) Their standard armament consists of four blaster cannons; two firing forward and two aft.
