Many iterations of the Bes'Uiiks have been made and forged for the Mandalorians in the past. Many were in the shape of the rather famous Basilisks. However, these were instead shaped after the idea of being more of a starfighter capable vessel instead of a tank. Thus, the inspiration came from the Shriek-Hawks. Bat Like creatures that are well known in the Mandalorian culture for being the inspiration for Clan members, and even paintings on Mandalorian helmets. Now, they are a closer integral part of the combat for Mandalorians. Created by the Priest Clan, and to be used by the Mandalorian Protectors, the hope is that these new Bes'uiiks will bring about a better age for the Mandalorians.
