YT1300 Freighter

The YT1300 is a light freighter designed and manufactured by Corellian Engineering Corporation of Coronet. For smaller outfits and free traders, it is the workhorse of the galactic economy.
==Description==
The freighter itself is saucer-shaped with two mandibles and a loader forward that allow access to and the loading and unloading of cargo from the main hold. Passengers embark via a ramp amidships on the starboard side. The cockpit is off-center, extending outward on the starboard side forward of the entrance and next to and just behind the starboard mandible.
Internally, the freighter's layout is circular with curved, rounded corridors that provide access to the hold, the cockpit, various machinery spaces as well as a small lounge and quarters for the crew and passengers.
==Reputation==
The YT1300 is a standard of galactic trading. Found from Coruscant to the Outer Rim Territories, it is the workhorse of interstellar trade and commerce. While it does not have the size of great cargo haulers, it does benefit from ease of customization, speed versus even quick snubfighters, an array of possible weapons that can be upgraded and sufficient cargo space to make trading runs profitable all around.
In recent memory, the YT1300 has been flown by such individuals as Agrippa Junik and Ksar Antilles. Both individuals' ships were highly modified for speed and maneuverability and they took part in fly-offs on a few occasions. The young bush pilot Anakin Skywalker first earned a name for himself beyond his home planet of Tatooine when he piloted Antilles' ship Caliban against Junik who few his own ship, Millennium Falcon. Skywalker beat the slightly speedier Falcon hands down. Rumor has it that Junik promptly hired Skywalker away from Antilles for his own purposes.
