Revision as of 22:48, 16 October 2024
The 31.5-meter-long 578-R space transport by Amalgamated Hyperdyne is a modestly designed ship that has its share of manufacturing problems. The Corellian company (whose full name is Amalgamated Hyperdyne and Refuse Management) goes bankrupt after repeated safety recalls drain the profits built up after initial sa les. Though the ship is designed to be modular, many 578-R space transports come off of assembly lines incomplete. Sometimes a finished ship is missing a critical piece, such as a hyperdrive motivator or an inertial dampener. Others suffer more subtle problems that are not apparent until a dangerous moment, such as transparisteel viewports coming loose during space travel, or sensor systems burning out during a tricky landing.
Most of the flawed transports are recalled or otherwise removed from the market, but those 578-R space transports still in use are a hit with mechanics and outlaw techs looking to customize a ship and make it their own. Additionally, the 578-R uses components of contemporary Corellian Engineering Corporation designs. In fact, some of the ship’s systems are licensed from CEC engineers, so finding replacement parts for the 578-R is exceptionally easy. The Last Resort, a 578-R space transport owned by Gorman “Camper” Vandrayk, is an excellent example of one such ship that is modified over a long period of time.
