The last of the YV-series transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. At 22 meters in length, the YV-929 Armed Freighter is a small ship that is marketed as an "armed freighter," designed to give small shippers and merchants a fighting chance to survive pirate raids and ambushes.

Built on the same keel as the original YV-100, the fuselage of the YV-929 is enhanced with a pair of external bays that increases its cargo capacity. A domed "parlor" has also been added below the cockpit in an effort to make the ship appeal to a more civilian audience.

Unfortunately, all of these structural modifications leaves the YV-929 with little integrity. Many of these ships start popping their seams as soon as the shields are breached, limiting the ship's ability to survive a firefight. The YV-929 is armed with a pair of double turbolaser cannons, one dual ion cannon, two triple blasters, and eight concussion missile launchers.

The basic crew includes a pilot and three gunners, and it can carry up to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo.
