  • The last of the YV-series transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. At 22 meters in length, the YV-929 Armed Freighter is a small ship that is marketed as an "armed freighter," designed to give small shippers and merchants a fighting chance to survive pirate raids and ambushes. Built on the same keel as the original YV-100, the fuselage of the YV-929 is enhanced with a pair of external bays that increases its cargo capacity. A domed "parlor" has also been added below the cockpit in an effort to make the ship appeal to a more civilian audience.
  • [Source] The YV-929 armed freighter was a 22-meter-long light freighter produced by Corellian Engineering Corporation. It used the same forward cockpit structure as the much larger YV-100 light freighter. Unlike most CEC freighters, which came off the assembly lines with minimal weaponry, the YV-929 was designed from the start to be heavily armed for defense against pirate and Rebel raids, and also featured very strong shields. Despite its compact size and heavy armament, the YV-929 was still able to carry 150 metric tons of cargo.

  • The last of the YV-series transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. At 22 meters in length, the YV-929 Armed Freighter is a small ship that is marketed as an "armed freighter," designed to give small shippers and merchants a fighting chance to survive pirate raids and ambushes. Built on the same keel as the original YV-100, the fuselage of the YV-929 is enhanced with a pair of external bays that increases its cargo capacity. A domed "parlor" has also been added below the cockpit in an effort to make the ship appeal to a more civilian audience. Unfortunately, all of these structural modifications leaves the YV-929 with little integrity. Many of these ships start popping their seams as soon as the shields are breached, limiting the ship's ability to survive a firefight. The YV-929 is armed with a pair of double turbolaser cannons, one dual ion cannon, two triple blasters, and eight concussion missile launchers. The basic crew includes a pilot and three gunners, and it can carry up to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo.

Not surprisingly, the YV-929 was often used by the very Rebels and pirate groups it was designed to defend against. The second most common user of the design was the Corporate Sector Authority. It was often referred to as a "flying brick". The Empire often sanctioned or fined CEC for selling the freighters to various third parties such as the Rebel Alliance.
