Shadow Dragon

"'The Dragon's a lot of things, but bein' pretty ain't one of 'em.' - Gavin Desyk"



A modified CEC YT-2400 Light Freighter, The Shadow Dragon was owned and operated by Gavin Desyk. With many of the internals having been Macgyvered together from various pieces of “liberated Imperial technology”, it was a wonder that the ship was not impounded by the New Republic more frequently.

Design
The Shadow Dragon was a YT-2400 Light Freighter from the Corelian Engineering Corporation. One of the first changes Gavin made was to upgrade the stock blaster canons to a pair of AG-2G Quad Laser Canons.

After meeting with Airsi Fatahl, Gavin would go on to modify the hyperdrive from a Class 1 to be Class 0.8, feeling that staying closer to a stock unit would cause fewer breakdowns. An additional change was the swapping of the backup module with a Class 2 module, giving the ship a much needed boost in power, even in the event of the main Hyperdrive module going offline for whatever reason.

Not long after, a pair of Gyrhil 72 Auto Blaster modules were added under the nose of the cockpit, giving the Shadow Dragon a little additional firepower. It was around the same time that a pair of BlasTech Industries AX-108 “Ground Buzzer” Blaster Canons were added, being stored in hidden compartments on the ventral side of the ship.

The final modification saw the ship be fitted with a single Arakyd Industries ST2 Concussion Missile Tube, right in front of the modified docking hatch. The magazine of the device was modified to hold three times the stock capacity, providing a total capacity of 12 missiles.
