EQUIPMENT

DESCRIPTION
The Balutar swoop produced by the MandalMotors corporation. Swoops differ from standard jumpspeeders by having extremely powerful engines and high service ceilings; in effect, they are one-being airspeeders, stripped down to an engine, a set of controls and a seat. They are fast, require skill to effectively control and are extremely dangerous, and the Balutar is an exception to a few of these that makes it stand out.

The Balutar, is a long running model of swoop bike used by Mandalorians and many outer rim denizens. With an unusually aerodynamic design it can carry up to an additional fifty kilograms behind the driver though this doubles as a secondary (though uncomfortable) passenger seat if needed.

Compared to other swoops the Balutar provides a small profile. It is possible to find, order or modify the Balutar to have a pair of light blaster cannons on the nose making it one of the few combat swoops on the market. If purchased this way, the bolts will be in Mandalorian trademark yellow though after market cannon additions have led to the cannons discharging more common red blasts. The combat or 'patrol' model as its called, is rarely seen anywhere save for outer rim worlds where licenses and law enforcement aren't the type to ask for documentation.

LEGALITY
Legal. Balutar swoops are mostly composed of civilian models, and are unrestricted on most worlds. They will get the attention of most authorities regardless, however due to their unique appearance. Combat models, if seen in a heavily populated area, will usually be stopped to provide proper proof of licensing.

INTENT
To create a potential combat swoop based on the balutar class swoop
