List of Star Wars Starfighters - Naboo N-1 Starfighter

Naboo N-1 Starfighter

The N-1 Starfighter first appeared during the space battle period of the Battle of Naboo in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace where a squadron of the fighters attacked the orbiting Droid Control Ship. During the Battle of Naboo, Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) pilots a Naboo N-1 Starfighter into the Droid Control Ship's docking bay. N-1 Starfighters also appear in the beginning of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones escorting senator Padmé Amidala's (Natalie Portman) Naboo Royal Cruiser upon its arrival to Coruscant. The N-1 appears at the end of the DVD version of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. This ship is available to the player in the Nintendo 64 and PC video game Star Wars: Battle for Naboo. The starfighter is also an unlockable vehicle in the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron series.

The N-1 initially had the same angular design as craft in the original Star Wars trilogy; only in later designs did it take on a streamlined appearance. A life-size model of a Naboo Starfighter hangs suspended from the ceiling of the Blue Wing at the Boston Museum of Science, in Boston, Massachusetts. This 1:1 scale model was unveiled at the museum in April 2004, as a prelude to the Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination exhibit. The model was previously used as a prop during the filming of The Phantom Menace.. The starfighter is also in the Star Wars Star Fighter game on Xbox.
