Rho-class Transport Shuttle

The Rho-class transport shuttle was a type of shuttlecraft used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars and later by the Galactic Empire. A similar model to the Nu-class shuttle, they saw frequent use as transport and medical ships, with an optional cargo module attached underneath the hull. Several Rho-class shuttles were used in Project War-Mantle to ferry troops and supplies to and from Imperial worlds such as Daro and Kamino.

Rho-class transport shuttles were nearly identical in appearance to Nu-class shuttles. Their main distinctions were a dorsal fin, elongated hull, and the ability to carry cargo pods clamped to the ship's underside. These cargo pods were often detached onto the ground to serve a variety of functions. Some were deployed as medical stations while others were used as mobile barracks.

They had two wings that folded upward upon landing and were armed with six laser cannons. Rho-class shuttles used by the Republic Medic Corps were adorned with orange markings and blue stripes. Ones used by the Coruscant Guard had gray hulls with red stripes on the wings.
