The Ghost is a modified VCX-100 light freighter originally made by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. The ship has a turret underneath the cockpit section, with a dedicated gunner seat and a dorsal turret midships. The vessel has a crew section at the front half and a cargo hold in the rearward half. The ship has port and starboard docking rings, like a majority of Corellian light freighter designs. It has two cockpits, one controlled the entire ship, while the other, directly in front of it, controlled the nose-mounted turret. Behind the main cockpit is the crew's quarters, and near the engine arrays are the main cargo hold.
Behind the scenes[]
The Ghost was first unveiled on July 27, 2013 at Celebration Europe II, as part of some concept art for the series. When it was unveiled, it received a lot of applause. In addition, several Rebel pins also contained hidden hints to locating schematics of the ship online, which was eventually discovered to be the StarWars.com Blog's article, "Seen a ghost?"
