The Starscream-9 Ion Drive, manufactured by Sienar Fleet Systems, represented a military-grade ion engine designed for starfighters. This advanced piece of technology, priced at 500,000 credits and having a weight of 24 metric tons, was considered state-of-the-art for its era. Due to its complex design, making alterations to it proved exceptionally challenging, and owning a Starscream-9 as a civilian within Imperial territories was categorized as a serious offense.
