Characteristics
Edit
The Shaadlar-type was based on a Basilisk design and had a gruesome insectoid appearance. They were capable of landing troops on planetary surfaces, where the four "legs" extended to support the weight of the ship itself.[1] Modified through generations, later model troopships were less insectoid in appearance, and had six legs situated underneath the main bulk of the vessel.[2]
The various models were armed with ion cannons, as well as concussion missile launchers for bombarding of ground targets.[1]
HistoryEdit
The troopships were used during the Great Sith War and the Mandalorian Wars, assaulting planets once orbital positions had been established.[2]
