C5 tractor beam emitter

Legends Canon version → Linked from 2 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The C5 tractor beam emitter, manufactured by Phylon, was a tractor beam emitter commercially available for cargo loading. The Millennium Falcon, a YT-1300 light freighter owned by Han Solo, was equipped with two C5 emitters within the forward mandibles of the starship. Although the emitters were only capable of lifting 900kg at a range of 30 meters, Solo's co-pilot Chewbacca was skilled enough at the controls to capture falling bodies with the tractor beams.
