Sheathipede-class transport shuttles were transport shuttles designed by Haol Chall Engineering. Shaped like soldier beetles, the crafts were intended to frighten enemies. The shuttles were used by the Trade Federation shipping cartel during the Invasion of Utapau for planetary travel or to ferry passengers to and from vessels in orbit. The craft, which had claw-footed landing legs, was flown by an automatic pilot to increase space within the cabin of the ship.
