V-19 Torrent Starfighter
Ship Class: Starfighter
Ship Role: Starfighter
Ship Length: 6 meters
Agility (A): 4
Defensive (D): 1
Offensive (O): 2
Speed (S): 3
Special Gear: 0
Description:
The V-19 Torrent starfighter was an assault fighter with exceptional speed and maneuverability used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. It was a predecessor of the Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing starfighter, in terms of purpose and usage.
The V-19 was unique in that it had two pairs of folding airfoils (S-foils) that gave the ship added maneuverability and provided pilots with easy access to the cockpit's sliding canopy. The lower, hinged S-foils coupled with enhanced repulsorlift engines made the V-19 an exceptional vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) fighter.
Its armament consisted of two laser cannons (one on each wingtip) and two concussion missile launchers. The number of concussion missiles carried by the V-19 was at least six. At Muunilinst, it was shown that these missiles were capable of independently acquiring and tracking their own targets. Anakin Skywalker took advantage of this feature to destroy a swarm of Nantex-class starfighters and a gun platform.
Early models of the fighter utilized hyperspace rings, though later models had an install class 1.0 hyperdrive.
