Koensayr BTL-H6 H-Wing starfighter

Originally pitched to the Republic as a beefier assault fighter, Koensayr had high hopes for the BTL-H6 becoming the replacement to their venerable, but quickly-aging Y-Wing starfighter. Unfortunately, due to the higher crew requirements and increased maintenance costs, the H-Wing was only purchased in limited quantities, seeing use with Republic SpecForces or elite bomber units within the Starfighter Corps. A significant number of H-Wings have also seen use with planetary defense and patrol squadrons, mercenaries, and independent contractors.

The H-Wing retains a similar sublight speed and slightly less maneuverability than the Y-Wing, but possesses a thicker hull and stronger shield generators, while fielding similar weapons capabilities. A unique feature of the BTL-H6 is the elevated turret, allowing for greater fire control while keeping the field of view of the pilot and bombardier free. The dedicated ion cannon gunner also frees them of distractions in combat.

Coupled with a powerful hyperdrive and independent navigational computer, the BTL-H6 can be a very versatile craft in the hands of a competent crew.
