Flier


A flier, alternatively spelled flyer, referred to droids or vehicles that employed repulsorlift technology for propulsion.

History and definitions

The Brotherhood of Darkness utilized flier vehicles throughout the period of the New Sith Wars.

During the Clone Wars, fliers were a frequent sight on the planet of Coruscant.

Vehicles like speeder bikes operated by the Galactic Empire were also known as flyers; in contrast to earlier Sith fliers, these generally had an altitude limit of 10 meters (equivalent to 32 feet).

The boomerang droid called Fido was described as a flyer in miniature form.

Behind the scenes

In the Star Wars: Jedi vs. Sith comic series, these vehicles were originally referred to as "flyers," but the novel Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, along with subsequent materials, identifies them as "fliers."
