[edit] Characteristics
A fighter/bomber with emphasis on the “bomber”, the NTB-630 is built to withstand ferocious enemy attack and to deliver a punishing volley to enemy capital ships itself. Heavily shielded and armored, the NTB-630 is a heavily reinforced frame in which a full load of proton torpedoes is contained and excellently protected until the payload is delivered straight into an enemy warship’s flank.
It was more heavily armed and armored then its close cousin, the ARC-170.[2] With a narrow spaceframe flanked by large engines, the NTB-630 resembled other Incom/Subpro starfighters such as the Z-95, PTB-625, and the ARC-170.[3]
[edit] History
It was in common use by Republic forces in the Outer Rim during the Clone Wars. Jedi Master Wom-Nii Gnaden piloted an NTB-630, and crashed into the Munificent-class star frigate Tide of Progress XII.[2]
