We still use Claw 5s!? Them things are antiques! I cant believe we still fly fighters that are nearly 100 years old!
—An Imperial pilot on the Claw 5
The Claw 5-class starfighter was a starfighter built by Dezendyan Shipyards, a subsidiary of Dezendyan Corporation. Entering service in 1,034 ABY they were used by the Imperial Navy of the Ingzan-Bregaran Empire and the House of Dezendyan Navy, the space defense force of the House of Dezendyan. These fighters were also used by the rebel Allied Armies Against Ingzan-Bregaran Imperialism and by the pro-Empire privateer Blúd Sháká Pirates. Several other poorer local defense forces used them as well, some for several centuries.
These fighters were used in the Rebellion against the Ingzan-Bregaran Empire by Imperial forces and allies of the empire as well as by rebel forces.
The Claw 5 was based on SoroSuub's Planetary Defender starfighter.
