64 - Y Swift 3 Repulsorlift Sled The 64 - Y Swift 3 Repulsorlift Sled was manufactured by Aratech Repulsor Company . Characteristics . Manufactured by Aratech Repulsor Company , the 64 - Y Swift 3 Repulsorlift Sled was a fast and light repulsorlift sled built with the same " engine with a seat " design philosophy as the swoop bike . Measuring 4 . 1 meters , advanced engineering design principles removed the need for bulky directional vane s to assist in steering , allowing the single rider to sit in a more comfortable upright position , using handlebars and foot pedals . Capable of reaching speeds of eight hundred kilometers an hour with a maximum flight ceiling of twenty - five meters , the Swift 3 was able to out - race anything short of an airspeeder . The modular design of the Swift 3 allowed engineers to refit the sled to deal with varying mission profiles . The repulsor coil s utilized by the Swift 3 were made of refined durelium , which was illegal for use in civilian vehicles . The Swift 3 had a front - mounted Mk 2e / S medium blaster cannon , a single clamping hook launcher , and drop net s that were launched from a compartment on the underside of the sled . The Swift 3 ' s rider would position the vehicle over a target , then drop the nets . The nets tangled around the target vehicle , giving off short pulses to disrupt the target vehicle ' s repulsor fields . The net drew energy from the repulsor field , causing the target vehicle to crash . The sled was also equipped with up - to - date scanning and communications jamming equipment . With a cargo capacity of four kilograms and a day ' s worth of consumables , the Y - 64 cost 8 , 000 credits to buy new , and 1 , 800 to purchase used . History . The Swift 3 was commissioned by Army Command to combat the rise in swoop gangs terrorizing planets throughout the Outer Rim Territories . The sled had an exceptional success rate , leading to the Swift 3 being deployed along speeder bikes and All Terrain Scout Transport teams . It was employed as a patrol craft on Imperial - controlled planets . In the months following the end of the Clone Wars , a 64 - Y was in use on Sel Zonn Station , an XQ2 Platform which orbited the Core World of Brentaal IV . It was employed by the Empire to move some special cargo and to spontaneously defend it from a group of Alderaanian Resistance agents . Brinaloy N ' Vaari , the Devaronian fiancée of A ' jidre Skrigatov , owned a heavily modified Swift 3 painted in flaming crimson adorned with black racing stripes . N ' Vaari went into hiding to avoid marrying Skrigatov , paying Al T . Nadder to repaint the Swift 3 an iridescent green with purple racing stripes . She then traded the Swift 3 for a hydrobike at Phluche ' s Hydrobike Rentals , paying the Herglic owner Phluche Maltrid one hundred credits to not sell it for at least six days . On the planet Stend VI , a specially formed Storm Commando unit , the Dark Riders , was led by Lieutenant Irlyn Resk . Tasked with combating the numerous swoop gangs on the planet , the unit utilized Swift 3s alongside modified Ikas - Adno XR - 10 Shadowhawk s . Chop Harlison , a swoop tech based in the city of Gallisport on Shesharile 5 , used the repulsor coils from a Swift 3 when building his custom prototype swoop , the Star Slinger .
