Background: Constructed by the Mandalorian MandalMotors company, the Balutar-class swoop was a compact speeder bike, measuring only 2.66 meters in length. Despite its small size, the Balutar possessed an engine more powerful than commonly seen in vessels of its proportions. The swoop’s power generator was located at the vehicle’s nose, resting above the main airscoop. The Balutar-class swoop’s low center of gravity was located directly beneath the seat of the driver, contributing to the significant ease with which an individual could control the vehicle. A compact speeder bike with room for a single pilot and one additional passenger, the Balutar-class swoop served primarily as a means of personal transport. In addition, the otherwise unarmed swoop could be modified into a police patrol craft, a role in which it would commonly be augmented with aftermarket twin cannons.
