    This document summarizes the Jedi Eta-2 Actis Interceptor starfighter. It was developed during the Clone Wars by Kuat Systems Engineering as an advancement of the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor. The Eta-2 was even more compact and focused on speed and firepower over sensors and shields. It had powerful laser cannons and ion cannons. Only highly skilled Jedi pilots like Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi could handle the advanced capabilities of this interceptor.

    Description: With the outbreak of the Clone Wars, the Jedi saw themselves pressed into the forefront of
    military activity, serving as Generals in the campaign against the Separatists. The demands of combat
    saw advancements in the Jedi starfighter arsenal, resulting in modifications and a new generation of
    fighter craft.

    Though the wedge-shaped starfighter design was still in use by war's end, a newer model had earned the
    spotlight for its use by renowned Jedi heroes, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

    This new model was much more compact, cutting away a large portion of the forward spaceframe to
    have a forked front, bracketing a bulbous cockpit pod. Lining the inner edges of the ship's "tines" were
    powerful long-barreled laser cannons. The ship also had secondary cannons recessed on the outer edge
    of each tine. A full-size astromech rested within a spring-loaded socket on the port wing, and the craft's
    wingtips could fold open, revealing hexagonal panels when the ship entered combat mode. The
    hexagonal wings and the spoke-windowed cockpit were strong indicators of future starfighter designs to
    be adopted by the galactic government.

    This new model also lacked a hyperdrive, so it too had to rely upon a hyperspace transport ring to
    achieve superluminal velocities. During the war, bigger more robust rings were used, with multiple
    lightspeed engines increasing their speed and range.

    Ace Jedi pilots like Anakin Skywalker and Saesee Tiin pushed the Delta-7 to its limits. Skywalker
    constantly tinkered with his starfighter, modifying its systems to optimize performance. Based on his
    innovations, Kuat Systems Engineering revisited the starfighter design and developed a bold and radical
    follow-up to the Delta-7 with its Eta-2 Actis interceptor. Anakin Skywalker was the first to pilot this new
    model, though other Jedi soon followed in his path, including Tiin, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu.

    Only a Jedi pilot would be brave enough to fly an Eta-2 into combat. That's not to disparage its
    capabilities; rather, it is a very advanced high-performance craft that devotes most of its system
    resources to pure speed and power. It does so at the expense of heavy flight instruments, sensors and
    shields. A Jedi Knight's attunement to the Force more than compensates for these compromises.

    In compressing -- yet increasing -- the performance of the Delta-7 into a frame no bigger than an
    airspeeder, Kuat engineers faced many challenges. Key among them was overheating. A sophisticated
    system of pumps, heat sinks and extendable radiator wing panels help draw heat away from the Eta-2's
    miniature reactor.
