Corellian HoverFreighter


The Corellian HoverFreighter was a repulsorcraft used by Wookiees to transport goods such as nova crystals between spaceports.

Characteristics


Corellian HoverFreighters were manufactured at spaceports, costing 75 units of carbon to assemble. As repulsorcrafts the HoverFreighters levitated above ground surfaces and could even traverse over bodies of water. The HoverFreighters were grey with painted strips on the side to indicate their affiliation. They had a rectangular shape with strips that extended below the body of the vehicles which carried orange boxes filled with nova crystals.

Role


Corellian HoverFreighters were used to exchange goods between spaceports, typically carrying nova crystals on a return journey.

History


Corellian HoverFreighters were used 39 BBY and 36 BBY, during the war for the moon Alaris Prime fought between Wookiee colonists and the Trade Federation. Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, acting as an advisor to the Wookiees, instructed the Wookiee Chewbacca to build Corellian HoverFreighters at his camp to faciliate trade between him and Shoran, another Wookiee.

Behind the scenes


The Corellian HoverFreighter was created for the 2001 LucasArts video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, serving as the Wookiee version of the cargo hovercraft unit.
