Slave I, also spelled Slave One, was a modified Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft used by the infamous Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett before the Clone Wars and later his unaltered cloned son Boba Fett just prior to the Fall of the Republic and during the reign of the Galactic Empire. The ship in its original form was produced by a subsidiary company of Kuat Drive Yards, based on the planetKuat.

Jango put Slave I through extensive modifications after several harsh battles in space. 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. He also altered the previously police-regulation cages into coffin-like cabinets that were less-humane but better controlled his prisoners. By the ship’s use under Boba, Slave I had what were described as «prisoner cages,» which had six immobilizing bunks. In the cockpit, sensor scopes displayed readouts for the starship’s navigation, atmospheric data, and weapons systems.

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. The ship also had a holoprojector in the main cabin as well as six chairs for passengers. The artificial gravity on each deck re-oriented, depending on the flight mode the ship was in.

The Book of Boba Fett is just weeks away, so now is the perfect time to examine all the hidden details and secret lore of Boba Fett’s ship, Slave I. We’ll talk about how good it is, compare it to the Razor Crest from the Mandalorian, and look at what it might do in the Book of Boba Fett.
