ShipsBR-23 Courier
The BR-23 Courier was a durable personnel transport and courier ship that served in Old Republic fleets and militias. After finding the market for TIE/ln starfighters enormously more profitable due to the Empire's swift move away from transports like the BR-23, Sienar partially refitted its large back stock of BR-23s with civilian-grade systems and dumped them onto the open market. These inexpensive craft, which were easy to repair, proved to be a boon of profit for Sienar. While not as fast or as agile as some of the higher-class transports available, the BR-23 Courier is surprisingly durable for a ship its size, thanks to its military origins. The base model is still equipped with military-grade deflector shields as standard equipment, as well as outfitted with two lasers
turrets for defense against fighter craft. Nevertheless, its lack of maneuverability means that this is unlikely to stop a concerted attack. Despite this, the ship's impressive passenger capacity and the ease of which modifications can be applied make it an excellent choice for independent companies or paramilitary groups looking for a large courier ship to utilize in lieu of more expensive alternatives.
