Ships

The T-6 shuttle, often referred to as the Jedi Ambassadorial Shuttle, is a transport vessel frequently utilized by the Jedi Order in the Star Wars universe. This starship was showcased in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series. Manufactured by the Slayn & Korpil company, the T-6 Shuttle was primarily utilized for diplomatic missions and communication assignments by the Jedi Diplomatic Corps, hence the label 'Ambassadorial'.

Typically, this craft is piloted by a single individual, but it can accommodate several passengers. The spacious and adaptable interior of the T-6 enables it to match the varying needs of the occupants, and its onboard astromech droid offers navigational support. This shuttle is admired for its robust structure, speed, and defense capabilities, making it an ideal choice for voyages across the galaxy.

In terms of structure and design, the T-6 shuttle is characterized by a stylish and sleek exterior with a dominant red color scheme. The ship features one central hull with two wings extending from each side, making it ideal for Interstellar travel. It's also equipped with a hyperdrive, enabling it to traverse vast space distances efficiently. The dual laser cannons mounted on the wings ensure a certain level of defense against attackers.

Within the Star Wars canon, the T-6 shuttle has made several significant appearances. It was seen in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series, where it was used by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker on diplomatic missions. Most notably, it was prominently showcased in the episode "Sphere of Influence," while a T-6 shuttle was also visible in the backdrop of Coruscant’s landing platforms in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.

In addition to its in-universe presence, the T-6 shuttle has been featured in various Star Wars products outside the films and series. This includes the Star Wars: The Old Republic video game and the LEGO Star Wars sets, affirming its popularity among Star Wars enthusiasts and fans.
