Nashtah Pup

Description

The Nashtah Pup was a modified Z-95 Headhunter used by the bounty hunter Bossk as a scout ship and escape craft for his Houndstooth YV-666. It was carried aboard the hunter’s primary vessel, the Hound’s Tooth in a modified cargo bay. It could carry only two people and had limited life support capabilities.

The Z95 headhunter, also referred to as the Z-95 starfighter or simply the Z-95, was a multi-purpose starfighter jointly manufactured by Incom Corporation and Subpro.  Despite being considered outdated, the Z-95 was durable and adaptable to a variety of different roles, which led many to recognize it as a versatile and respectable snub-fighter of its era.  Countless variants of the headhunters were produced, including one model designed specifically for the Grand Army of the Republic’s clone pilots during the Clone Wars.  The Z-95 was the forerunner of Incom’s popular T-65 X-wing starfighter.

The Z-95 headhunter was fairly inexpensive and reliable, making it a favorite amongst smugglers, Outer Rim organizations local system defense forces, and bright-eyed youngsters with dreams of becoming fighter jockeys.  Pirate groups such as the Nebula Front also used the Z-95.  Also, despite the later T-65 being more maneuverable, the Z-95 was known to be able to perform a tighter turn.  All attributes that were highly valuable to such scum and villainy groups.
