J-type 327 Nubian royal starship

The J-type 327 Nubian royal starship was a starship model designed and built by Nubia Star Drives, Inc.. They used a sublight engine and a T-14 hyperdrive generator, also designed by Nubian Design Collective. The T-14 hyperdrive gave the J-type 327 Nubian a hyperdrive rating of 1.8.

The Naboo Royal Starship used by Queen Padmé Amidala was technically a modified J-type 327 Nubian starship, due to the unique spaceframe being built around an imported Nubian sublight engine and T-14 hyperdrive. It therefore had to use J-type 327 Nubian parts. During the Invasion of Naboo it transported Amidala, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi. In the era of the Galactic Empire, Sith Lord Darth Vader came to own Amidala's starship after being given it by his Sith Master Darth Sidious. Vader took it to Mustafar and deactivated the shields for atmospheric entry, scorching the body of the vessel. He then used it as a base of operations while creating his castle there. The ship's hull was later returned to its pristine condition.
