A customised torpedo gunship whose plans Shrike stole from the Starforge facility. Constructed in secret by Mandalorian metallurgists, the Banshee has several inovative features. Bird-like in design, the ship fits somewhere between a freighter and a heavy fighter in size, capable of holding a small crew in cramped conditions. During construction, many of its components were replaced with sensor baffling devices, making the ship hard to detect and track. The ship's transponder is unique and unregistered.

Within the ships armory Shrike and Achilles have constructed a trophy rack to display the loot from their adventures.
