PACKAGING TEXT

Within the First Order Fleet, troops, officers and personnel traverse the interiors of massive ships using small fleet transports. Piloted by First Order R5 astromech droids, these vehicles are programmed with ship schematics and security access codes. In the event of a non-recoverable ship emergency, the fleet transports load into the First Order Short-Range Vehicles (SREV). Once ejected, the SREV use short-range thrusters for maneuvering to refuge, and are colored bright red to assist in locating during search and rescue operations.
