The G9 Rigger freighter was a type of Corellian freighter. It was already an aging model by the time of the Clone Wars. It was slow and unwieldy compared to starfighters. While not a military design, at least one such vessel, the Twilight, saw action in the Clone Wars, when Anakin Skywalker used it to escape Teth and was intercepted over Tatooine by Rogue-class starfighters. The G9 Rigger has 3 blaster cannons located on the struts projecting out of the ship. At least one ship of this class was used during the Evacuation of Dac in 137 ABY.
