Designed to take out the mines commonly used in the galaxy today, a Hichiliar craft tends to move around the outside of a minefield, knocking out the mines from long range. The Sniperfocus rifles are designed to take out the newer contact mines, devices that are so small that they cannot be hit by Starfighter scale weapons, and that home in on starfighters when those ships pass by. The Hichiliar minesweepers usually make their rounds accompanied by several fighters, as they are not really fast or maneuverable enough for dogfighting. Designed by RPD exclusively for New Republic use, the Hichiliar craft is far more advanced than comparable Imperial craft, usually modified attack transports.
