The Z-95 Headhunter or the Clone Z-95 Headhunter is a single-seater starfighter developed by Incom and Subpro Corporations for the Galactic Republic's Clone trooper pilots during the Clone Wars. They were later used during The Last of the Droids for the Galactic Empire but were rarely seen due to the development of the TIE series late in the Clone Wars.
Characteristics[]
At 16.74 meters in length, it slightly surpassed its predecessor model, which is 11.8 meters long. Its sleek design facilitated maneuverability and agility, with a long nose extending from its single-pilot cockpit. It has a similar piloting control system as another Incom/Subpro product, the ARC-170 Starfighter. The cockpit's features include a targeting computer. The starfighter's two engine units, a reduction from the Headhunter's original four, are mounted on double wings and required regular maintenance. A laser cannon is positioned on each angular wingtip, leading to a wingspan of 18.13 meters.
