Though an outdated starfighter, the Z-95 boasts endurance and adaptability. The clone pilots of the Galactic Republic used the Z-95 Headhunter during the Clone Wars. A multi-purpose starfighter, the Z-95 has spawned countless variants, with the Republic making its own mark on the Headhunter's large production run with a clone trooper-specific model. The Z-95 is largely recognized as a respectable and versatile snub-fighter of its era, and was the forerunner of the incredibly successful X-wing starfighter.
Slimmer and more maneuverable than the heavy-duty ARC-170 fighter, the Z-95 was similar enough in control to its brawnier cousin that many clone troopers cross-trained in both craft types.
The Z-95 Headhunter was a test-bed of technologies and designs that would eventually be folded into the Incom T-65 X-wing.
The clone pilots of the Galactic Republic were an adaptable lot, capable of piloting a diverse array of combat craft, from the Republic gunships to Torrent interceptors to Z-95 Headhunters.
