The T-16 Skyhopper is a well-armed airspeeder capable of reaching speeds and altitude greater than that of most in its class. It boasts a tri-foil wing arrangement and an advanced steering system, both granting it extraordinary maneuverability which is reflected through its ability to make extremely sharp turns at high speeds. Its substantial speed is the result of pairing twin repulsorlift engines for lift and an ion engine for thrust. A notable design feature is the cockpit of the T-16, which can be separated from its body, allowing easier maintenance access to its instruments.
