Star Wars Ships and Vehicles
Incom Corporation
Incom is most famous for its fighter designs, popularized around the time of the Empire. The unstable nature of the galaxy during that period allowed the company to sell ships to both the Empire and Alliance/New Republic, even as the Empire took control of the corporation and many of its designers left to found a competing firm.
I-7 Howlrunner | |
|
The I-7 "Howlrunner" is typical of most Incom designs, although it was originally intended to compete with Sienar's TIE series of fighters. The Howlrunner is lightly armed and normally doesn't include a hyperdrive, like the TIEs; however, some of these ships do include a hyperdrive, and can accommodate an additional occupant in the cockpit.

This "star hauler" is a bulk transport that carries large amounts of cargo between locations within a star system, usually from planets to ships/space stations or vice-versa. (Source: The Thrawn Trilogy Sourceboook) |

X-wing | |
|
An excellent multipurpose fighter, the X-wing is fast enough for fighter-to-fighter attacks and carries enough weapons to attack, in groups, a wide range of targets. Specialized craft are usually more capable in specific instances, but the X-wing can still perform well in most roles. As a result, the starfighter was favored (and popularized) by the Alliance, which didn't have the resources for construction or purchase of a variety of combat vessels.

Y-4 Transport | |
|
The Y-4 is a military transport, intended for carrying troops or small ground craft to combat zones. Some Y-4s can also carry small fighters, after extensive modification, but they generally don't perform well in that task. (Source: Cracken's Threat Dossier) |

Z-95 Headhunter | |
|
The Z-95 was designed by Incom and Subpro to be a multipurpose fighter, like the later X-wing, but in a time of little conflict and specialized warships the market for the craft was limited. As a result, most Z-95s were sold to private organizations that needed combat-capable craft but not an actual military force. The Z-95 can be modified easily; many later configurations have features not found in the original such as missile launchers or a hyperdrive. (Source: Rebel Alliance Sourcebook) |
