Coming off the huge success of the YT-1300 line, Corellian Engineering Corporation thought that the newly designed HT-2200 would be a big hit. Unfortunately, unfavorable reviews and poor word-of-mouth dried up the market for this medium freighter.
The HT-2200 has a low lift/ mass ratio, lacks adequate maneuvering thrusters and is unable to deliver significant lightspeed. While this is somewhat mitigated by its higher ratings in hull durability, shielding, two pulse laser cannons and four environment-adaptable cargo bays, the HT-2200 has acquired a reputation as "pirate bait" and is generally considered a failure. |
