The TIE Shuttle Craft was
developed based on the Tie Bomber series and is a personal shuttle used by
high-ranking Imperials on high-priority missions. The systems and equipment for
bombing purposes has been removed, and in the left gondola the weapons have
been replaced with a life-support system and two armchairs. The armchairs can be
removed which will allow the ship to carry up to 18 tons of a cargo. Captain Needa used such ship for
the flight from the Imperial Star Destroyer Avenger to the Super Star
Destroyer Executor in order to apologize to Darth Vader for losing
the Millennium Falcon. TIE Shuttles were in heavy use around the
time of the Battle of Hoth.
