Description

The ARC-170 is a rugged long-range heavy starfighter designed jointly by Incom and SubPro for reconnaissance, strike, escort, and independent combat. Its three-person flight crew, astromech, deflector shields, hyperdrive, heavy forward weapons, rear defensive armament, and extensive sensor suite provide endurance and survivability beyond that of most short-range carrier fighters.
