Helix J-104 starfighter
The Bounty Hunter Fighter, also known as the Helix J-104 starfighter, represented a starfighter class utilized by the Bounty Hunters' Guild in the aftermath of the Galactic Empire's fall. Riot Mar, a bounty hunter, piloted one of these starfighters while in pursuit of the Mandalorian named Din Djarin. Djarin, piloting his Razor Crest gunship, outmaneuvered the bounty hunter, positioning himself behind the fighter and destroying it. This fighter's design featured a flat profile, incorporating a central cockpit for a single pilot, along with two wings. An engine was situated between these wings.
