After Solo's capture, Boba transported the carbon-frozen rebel to bring him to Jabba the Hutt's custody at his palace on Tatooine. Boba tracked Solo and his ship, the Millennium Falcon, to Cloud City, landing the Slave I on the East Platform. During the Galactic Civil War, the adult Boba flew Slave I to rendezvous with the Imperial fleet, where Darth Vader tasked Boba and a group of bounty hunters to capture Han Solo. The ship became well-known to the galaxy's fugitives, who recognized it as the ship owned by one of the galaxy's deadliest bounty hunters. Slave I on Bespin at the time of Han Solo's capture That vessel belonged to my father." ―Boba Fett and Zuckuss " You didn't just hurt my ship- you went inside? " Ohnaka pulled her out of the crash site and took ownership of Slave I for a short period of time, before it returned to Fett's ownership near the end of the Clone Wars. After this, Sing lost control of the ship and it crashed, with the Jedi believing Sing to be dead. When Sing tried to escape on Slave I, Tano leaped onto the ship's hull and sliced off a wing with her lightsaber. After the arrival of the Jedi Master Plo Koon and Padawan Ahsoka Tano, Fett and Bossk were captured. Boba, his ally turned mentor Aurra Sing, Castas, and Bossk traveled to the planet Florrum to meet with Sing's friend, spice pirate Hondo Ohnaka in the ship. Īfter Jango's death during the First Battle of Geonosis, the craft came into the possession of his son, Boba, who used it throughout his failed quest to kill the Jedi Master who had beheaded his father, Mace Windu. While under Jango's ownership, the ship was used to travel to Ord Mantell and in a dogfight over Geonosis against a Jedi starfighter piloted by Obi-Wan Kenobi. Jango Fett stole Slave I whilst undertaking a job on Oovo IV, a prison moon that Firespray attack craft were used to guard, outfitting the craft with a number of weapons, including laser cannons, projectile launchers, and seismic charges. Slave I in orbit of Geonosis, under Jango Fett's ownership We'll move into the asteroid field, and we'll have a couple of surprises for him." ―Jango Fett " He must have put a homing device on our hull. The artificial gravity on each deck re-oriented, depending on the flight mode the ship was in. The ship also had a holoprojector in the main cabin as well as six chairs for passengers. The interior of Slave I included a deck situated on a gyro system, allowing the occupants to stay upright no matter what position the ship was in. In the cockpit, sensor scopes displayed readouts for the starship's navigation, atmospheric data, and weapons systems. By the ship's use under Boba, Slave I had what were described as "prisoner cages," which had six immobilizing bunks. He also altered the previously police-regulation cages into coffin-like cabinets that were less-humane but better controlled his prisoners. Because the original fit of Firespray patrol craft was only furnished for short-term patrol runs, he added spartan crew quarters due to the long hunts he partook in. Jango put Slave I through extensive modifications after several harsh battles in space. However, with the exception of the twin blaster cannons, the weapons systems remained hidden to make the ship appear as if it was lightly armed. The craft was equipped with overwhelming weaponry that could take out other heavily armed ships. Additionally, a secret military sensor, which could be used for jamming and masking, allowed Slave I to disappear from the majority of scanning systems. When his son, Boba Fett, took on the ship, he made his own modifications, so Slave I was filled with heavy-duty shield generators, several new weapons systems, and various types of auxiliary sensor systems. Slave I was equipped with powerful seismic charges.Īlready during its time under Jango, Slave I was a very effective and customized ship, armed with superior shielding technology, high levels of endurance, and an arsenal of hidden and overt weapons. During this time, the only overt weapon systems leftover from its standard layout were the tail blaster cannons, but he still made sure to upgrade them, allowing these cannons to be fired with greater precision. Slave I was a Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft that was modified as far back as its time under Jango Fett.
