The Nantex-class territorial defense starfighter, also known as the Geonosian Starfighter, is a type of advanced starfighter designed and manufactured by the Geonosian Industries for planetary defense. This agile and highly maneuverable starfighter was specifically created to serve the military needs of the Geonosian species, who are native to the desert planet of Geonosis. The Nantex-class is distinguished by its sleek profile and its advanced targeting capabilities, which are complemented by tractor beam projectors that allow it to control the battlefield by manipulating the movement of enemy ships.
The starfighter is heavily armed for its size, typically housing an array of laser cannons and other weapon systems. The Nantex-class saw significant use during The Clone Wars, where it was deployed against the Galactic Republic's forces. Its unique design, incorporating elements from Geonosian engineering, provided it with both offensive and defensive capabilities that made it a formidable adversary. The combination of speed, agility, and powerful armaments ensured that the Nantex-class could effectively fulfill its role in protecting Geonosis from external threats.
