YT-1300 Light Cargo Transport

     Saga Edition Core Rulebook, page 182.

Perhaps the most adaptable light cargo transport in the galaxy, the YT‑1300 design is built on a modular design to suit the needs of a wide variety of clients, many of whom aren’t Human, let alone bipedal. The YT‑1300 is an excellent all-purpose cargo transport, with powerful engines and a sturdy hull. The Corellian Engineering Corporation was quick to realize that it had a winner on its hands and made almost as many credits selling conversion kits as it did selling the transports themselves.

     Starships of the Galaxy, page 154.

The YT series is a popular line of light freighters built by the Corellian Engineering that includes the YT‑1300, the model of vessel that includes the Millennium Falcon. The first YT freighters were built during the height of the Old Republic, and new models continue to be produced in every era since. The core design of the YT series is built around two basic components—a disc-shaped main body and a large external cockpit area with extensive windows. Although some models moved away from these core design elements, they would return in later designs. Indeed, CEC made a point of reusing as many of the same parts as possible between designs, which had the advantage of allowing many different YT lines to be produced at one time without retooling the CEC shipyards. As a side effect, this helped make all YT ships extremely modular and easily modified, a fact that went far to explain the line’s ongoing popularity with independent traders, smugglers, and pirates.

     By far the most successful YT designs are the YT‑1300, YT‑2000, and YT‑2400. However, all YT ships have at least small dedicated followings and in some cases are the subject of collector’s clubs and vintage ship shows. Further, because the YT ships are so easily modified, it’s not always easy to tell what stock ship is at the core of a particular customized YT vessel.

Capabilities

All YT-series ships are solid light freighters, renowned for being sturdy and reliable. Their greatest asset is their easily modified nature. With less effort than for nearly any other ship line, a YT-series vessel can be fine-tuned to act as a smuggler, bulk hauler, luxury transport, or even a gunship or patrol craft. Every YT-series ship has 10 unused emplacement points as a stock ship, and new captains are quick to use them to add more guns, better shields, or whatever else their minds can conjure up. This adaptability is intentional, and has often led to authorities claiming that CEC designs the ships for use by smugglers and pirates. The CEC points out that thousands of YT ships are being used by law-abiding free traders and small companies. Of course, how many of those “law-abiding” customers are actually smugglers or spies is unknown, and more important, not provable in court.
