PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Royal Naboo Republic, Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps
• Affiliation: Royal Naboo Republic
• Market Status: Closed-Market
• Model: JN-300-N Sublight Engine
• Modularity: Minor Modularity (Future-proofed for upgrades and adaptable for different fighters)
• Production: Limited
• Material:
  • Chromium-Titanium Alloy (main engine housing)
  • Specialized Alloy Turbine Components
  • Standard Starship Components

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Advanced High-Efficiency Combustion System
  • Burns fuel at extremely high temperatures, drastically reducing emissions to safeguard Naboo's delicate ecosystem.
• Carbonite Cooling System
  • Utilizes proprietary carbonite-based technology to keep internal temperatures stable, minimizing overheating issues during extended operations.
• Advanced Thrust Control
  • Improves maneuverability and responsiveness, granting pilots finer control in both atmospheric and space-based engagements.
• Integrated Diagnostics Suite
  • Provides real-time engine performance data, easing troubleshooting and reducing downtime.

STRENGTHS

• Eco-Friendly Design
  • By burning fuel hotter and using carbonite cooling, the JN-300-N boasts significantly lower emissions, honoring Naboo's environmental ethos.
• High Performance
  • Delivers excellent thrust-to-weight ratio for rapid acceleration and sustained high-speed flight.

WEAKNESSES

• Complex Maintenance Requirements
  • The advanced carbonite cooling and high-temperature combustion system demand frequent inspections and specialized parts, leading to higher upkeep costs and downtime.
• Overheating Risk
  • Any damage to the carbonite-based cooling system or attempts to bypass engine safeties can cause rapid temperature spikes, potentially leading to partial or total engine failure under extreme conditions.

DESCRIPTION
Naboo's engineers have a long and storied history of creating ships and components, and the JN-300-N is no exception. Developed by the Theed Palace Space Engineering Corps for Naboo's iconic starfighters and Yachts, this advanced sublight engine is specialized to provide exceptional thrust and maneuverability, while burning its fuel at high temperatures to reduce emissions and protect their planet's pristine but fragile environment.

This comes at a high cost, however, requiring complex maintenance procedures and an advanced cooling system to maintain its excellent performance, and still there remains a risk of overheating and failure, should those cooling systems be damaged or the pilots attempt their far-too-common bypass of safety limits trying to push the envelope. All in all, however, the JN-300-N remains a testament to the capabilities of the Palace's best engineers and a mainstay of the Palace's fleets.
