Sorosuub PreyBird



rare form of SoroSuub combat starship, the Preybird was produced in extremely limited quantities. SoroSuub shut the project down after producing only a few production models. The smuggler Mazzic owned two of these ships. The design was eventually picked up by the remnants of the Empire under Moff Disra, who turned the plans over to Zothip and the Cavrilhu pirates. The Cavrilhu then began mass-producing the ships for Disra, who bypassed normal Imperial channels to fund the ships. Over time, the Preybird eventually replaced the TIE fighter, because it was cheaper to obtain them from pirates than from official Imperial channels. The Preybird had a long, central hull with a forward-situated cockpit. The wings are attached to the opposite end of the hull, rising up slightly before levelling off. A single laser cannon is mounted at the end of each wing, and the primary engines are located at the bend in the wings.
