The Lambda-class Shuttle that is used by nearly every culture in the Star Wars Galaxy. Built by Cygnus Spaceworks and Sienar Fleet Systems meaning that it has a large build run in both civilian and military markets. It does see the largest deployment for VIP and general transport use in the Imperial Navy.
Specifications
The shuttle has a moderately large cargo capacity (80 tons) for a ship of it's size making it very useful. It is equipped with a Class 1 hyperdrive and a medium capacity deflector shield system. Because of it's high speed and survivability it is a very popular with high ranking members of nearly every military and corporation.
The ship is fairly heavily armed for a transport craft though most civilian models are only lightly armed. The ship in it's military configuration is armed with two steerable twin laser cannons at the base of it's wings and 2 more fixed twin laser cannons in the main hull. It also has a retractable twin blaster turret mounted aft though many models do not include this. Most Civilian models only mount a single pair of twin laser cannons in the main hull.
The Emperor's personal shuttle has been equipped with a cloaking device and heavier shields and armor sacrificing most of it's cargo capacity.
