The Delta Class JV-7 "Escort Shuttle" was designed to carry the most valuable cargo - our highest ranking officers and diplomatic personnel - through areas of extreme danger. The Shuttle's wings are bent forward, and it is much more heavily armed than the Lambda Class T-4a Shuttle. The Escort Shuttle may also be deployed for perimeter patrol and as a support craft for missions involving the Lambda Class T-4a Shuttle. The most important weapon aboard the Escort Shuttle is the rear-mounted Heavy Laser Turret which has taken many enemy craft by surprise.

The JV-7 fulfills it's mission parameters with maximum efficiency and has become invaluable in protecting small convoys from Rebels and pirates alike. Unfortunately a number of Imperial JV-7 shuttles have been stolen and captured and are now being used by both pirates and the Rebel Alliance.
