Background: The tri-fighter, known colloquially by both its users and targets as the “Clutch”, was an “Ugly” starfighter used by several parties. Moff Leonia Tavira and her gang of pirates, the Invids used them. The Rebel privateer Urias Xhaxin had several of these fighters among other Uglies on board of his ship, the Free Lance. Clutches were also used as escort fighters when the population of Dubrillon was evacuated to Dantooine.
