The Zebra starfighter, a simple and cost-effective single-seater spacecraft, was produced by Hyrotil Vehicle Works.
The Rebel Alliance utilized numerous of these starfighters; however, their deployment was brief due to the fighter's less-than-ideal speed and agility, even considering its low cost. Nevertheless, they proved highly effective in ground attacks, seeing extensive use in this capacity until the Rebel Alliance transitioned to more efficient combat assets.
A minimum of two were operated by the pirate group known as the Riders of the Maelstrom. These craft conducted patrols around the starliner Kuari Princess after its capture by the pirates.
Zebras were part of the diverse fleet of smaller ships that defended Vergesso Base.
Subsequently, they participated in the Battle of Kalarba during the Yuuzhan Vong incursion.
