[edit] History

The XQ1 design, first released less than five years before the beginning of the Galactic Civil War, was produced in large numbers by Bengel Shipbuilders due to its quick assembly time (a few weeks) and multipurpose capabilities. It was originally designed for use at Ord Thoden until the Corporate Sector Authority purchased large numbers of the stations.

Many were used as simple stations and outposts by various organizations. The Galactic Empire, Rebel Alliance, Corporate Sector Authority, and a number of businesses used the platforms for research and development, command posts, and customs stations. This diversity of usage made it a popular choice for a light space installation.
