As a starfighter, it is one of the more nimble and robust in the galaxy for its size and is frequently seen in use by pirates and mercenaries due to its ability to take an enormous amount of punishment and continue functioning. The robust nature of the G-1A has saved the life of many who have found themselves on the wrong end of the long arm of the law. The only major drawback the G-1A faces is that it can dish out relatively little damage, featuring only a single pair of heavy lasers. Coupled with its remarkable maneuvering capabilities, however, the G-1A still makes for an ideal dogfighting vessel.
