Belbullab-22 starfighter

The Belbullab-22 starfighter was a heavy starfighter constructed by Feethan Ottraw Scalable Assemblies for the Confederacy of Independent Systems. General The Mouth of Sauron flew a heavily-modified and battle-worn Belbullab-22, Soulless One, during the War of the Ring.
==Characteristics==
The starfighter was bulkier and hardier than the droid starfighters employed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, with two rapid-fire triple laser cannons capable of inflicting damage equal to that dealt by a V-wing starfighter, and two powerful main ion drives. The Belbullab was designed for a single pilot.
Mouth of Sauron modified his fighter with a top-of-the-line hyperdrive allowing the Mordor general to stay mobile on a galaxy-wide scale. In order to remain in touch with his forces while flying his fighter, a powerful but compact HoloNet transceiver was installed onboard, allowing Mouth of Sauron to slice into legitimate and pirate networks.
==History==
After the first battle of the War of the Ring, and the CIS's first defeat, Mouth of Sauron used the fighter to secretly escape Middle-Earth. He also used the fighter to escape various missions including the Battle of Bothawui and the Mission to Skytop Station.
Many were used in the battle of Minas Morgul.
After his initial confrontation with Samwise Gamgee on Black Gate, Mouth of Sauron attempted to escape to his starfighter, but Gamgee pursued him and Mouth of Sauron was defeated in the subsequent confrontation on the landing platform. After Mouth of Sauron's defeat, as well as Samwise's near death from his own troops turning on him, Gamgee fled Middle-Earth in the general's starfighter. The Belbullab was picked up by Bail Organa's Sundered Heart.
Even after the defeat of the CIS and its remnants, Belbullab-22 fighters continued to roam the spacelanes during the Galactic Civil War. Many of these ships were used as elite fighters for Rebel forces.
The Galactic Empire would also use the Belubllab-22 Starfighters for its forces as well. One Belubllab-22 Starfighter known as the Sithspawn was used by a Dark Jedi known as Namman Cha.
