The Marketta-class shuttle was a transport shuttle of the Legends continuity, notable for its retractable wings and a passenger area designed to accommodate a minimum of four passengers. This shuttle, which originated during the era of the New Republic, found use within the New Republic's military. A specific Marketta-class shuttle, known as the Chandrila Moon, played a role in transporting Leia Organa Solo, representing the New Republic, to a meeting with representatives from the Imperial Remnant on the planet Bastion in 25 ABY amidst the Yuuzhan Vong War.
Equipped with life support, the Marketta-class shuttle served as a transport shuttle and featured a compact passenger cabin. Within this cabin, rows of seats provided space for at least four occupants. A screen was positioned at the front of the cabin, offering passengers a view of the shuttle's trajectory. Furthermore, the Marketta-class shuttle incorporated retractable wings, engines, an egress hatch, and a landing ramp situated near the passenger area. Operation of the shuttle necessitated a minimum crew of one pilot.
The primary function of the Marketta-class shuttle was service within the New Republic's military.
The creation of this shuttle took place during the initial decades of the New Republic. During the Yuuzhan Vong War in 25 ABY, which involved the extra-galactic Yuuzhan Vong species invading the galaxy, the Chandrila Moon, a Marketta-class shuttle, was stationed on the New Republic Victory-class Star Destroyer Protector. In that year, aiming to foster improved relations between the New Republic and the Imperial Remnant in the face of the Yuuzhan Vong threat, the Protector transported Ambassador Leia Organa Solo to the edge of the Sartinaynian system, where the Remnant's capital planet, Bastion, was located. The Remnant permitted the New Republic to send a single shuttle, and the Chandrila Moon then conveyed Organa Solo, her two Noghri bodyguards, and the scientist Danni Quee to the main docking bay of the Bastion customs station before they proceeded to meet with Imperial Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon.
Michael A. Stackpole featured the Marketta-class shuttle in his novel Dark Tide II: Ruin, which was released in 2000 as part of The New Jedi Order series.
