- “You're used to a gunship, but she's a starfighter. So fly her like one.”
- ―Peli Motto to Din Djarin[src]
Din Djarin's N-1 starfighter is a modified N-1 starfighter that appears in The Book of Boba Fett and The Mandalorian. It is owned by Din Djarin, following the destruction of the Razor Crest
Background[]
After losing his old ship, the Razor Crest, Djarin was in need of a new ship and turned to Peli Motto. At first, Djarin was reluctant to purchase the ship, as it was still in pieces. However, he agreed to assist Motto in rebuilding the ship with the help of her droids, with parts supplied by a pair of Jawas.
The two made several modifications to the starfighter to achieve greater speed. Both laser cannons were replaced with larger models and retained the under-slung torpedo launcher beneath the nose. The front cones of both engines were removed, with at least one on the front of both engines. Only the skeleton remained, and the panels beneath the cockpit and tail were removed during the modification process. A Kineso-switch was added to enable a starship to access its induction intake charger, which would allow the craft to travel at blinding speeds. The astromech socket was removed and replaced with with an extra seat, large enough for Grogu.
The ship's vapor manifold was replaced by a turbonic venturi power assimilator from a Galactic Republic-era starfighter. The thrust capacitor has an induction intake charger that Motto fabricated for the ship, and a cryogenic density combustion booster from a Pyke repulsortrain added to the rear thruster. The traditional yellow paint usually seen on N-1 starfighters was removed except a few stripes on each wing, mimicking the Razor Crest.
Din Djarin was hesitant about the ship, but bonded with it during the rebuild, and was even more impressed when he took it out for a test flight.
Trivia[]
- The Concept art for the starfighter was created by artists Christian Alzmann, Ryan Church, Anton Grandert, and Doug Chiang. Chiang originally designed the N-1 starfighter for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. The idea of building a customized version of a vehicle with speed modifications in a garage with a mechanic was inspired by the film American Graffiti, which was directed by George Lucas.
