Gelophla G-332 Hawk Starfighter

undefined The Gelophla G-332 Starfighter is a starfighter developed by Gelophla as a cheaper alternative to Incom's X-Wing.

Description
The G-332 is a 2 seat starfighter. The entire craft is designed to look like some sort of bird of prey. The front, adorned with 2 cockpits, is designed to look like the head of a bird. The wings actually resemble bird wings, and swing back during dives, straightening when the craft gains altitude or levels out. The rear tail of the starfighter resembles that of a bird's as well.

Development
The Rebellion needed a starfighter that was cheaper than Incom's X-Wing starfighters, to supply to smaller planets of the Rebellion. Gelophla had a model about a foot long of a bird-shaped starfighter with wings that could swing back during a dive maneuver. They built a fully functional full-sized model that flew relatively well. Unfortunately, the G-X32 cost 230,070 Credits to build, far above the X-Wing's price. After finding a cheaper, lighter material, another G-X32 was built and tested. This much more lightweight model flew much more successfully, and only costed 90,340 Credits to manufacture. The rebellion was impressed, and cleared the production of the craft. The G-332 continued to serve until the First Order replaced the Galactic Empire.
