Is there a hyperdrive faster than 0.4?

Just my curiosity, I never seen any starship with a hyperdrive faster than 0.4, which is Zonama Sekotan ship, and I think 0.4 (also shared by Bes'uilik) is the only example of a hyperdrive faster than 0.5? Just making sure I didn't forget something, kek.

Those are the only two I know of. Other ships were ‘faster’ than others with the same class due to the ability to alter a course while in hyper space, namely one of Tarkin’s personal ships, but I doubt that makes up anywhere near enough to beat a 0.4.

A ship with 0.3.

Yeah, 0.4 is the fastest on record.


Though it's worth noting that the Jabitha(one of two ships that have achieved 0.4) could only reach that speed due, in part, to its unique 'connection' with Anakin, which allowed it to vastly exceed its standard capabilities:

So it's not like any random pilot could have waltzed into the craft and duplicated those speeds.


The Bes'uliik, however, was just that fast:

Does that mean Anakin (with enough time) could theoretically speed up any ship?

Don’t know about Anakin, but Sidious created hyperspace wormholes.

Nah.

The Jabitha was a creation of Zonama Sekot bioscience, which combined mechanical and organic components. This gave it a sentience of sorts, which is why Anakin was able to connect with it in such a way.

Ah, neat.
I was kind of hoping for a secret Anakin ship power though tbh.

Originally the Jade Sabre was faster with a .03 hyperdrive but that was because the author got confused. It was retconned to just a regular Class 1

Hmm.

I noticed that the Jade Sabre was indicated to have a regular Class 1 hyperdrive in SSotG(published in 2001):

But in Survivor's Quest(published in 2004), it was stated that the Jade Sabre was capable of achieving >0.3 speeds:
quote:
The Jade Sabre was capable of somewhat better than 0.3 past lightspeed, and they made it to Crustai with nearly a day to spare.

*And the most recent information is typically regarded as the most canon.

So unless a source published after 2004 retcons/redacts the above, then I suppose the Jade Sabre has technically achieved the fastest recorded speed in the mythos.



Interesting...
