Category:Speeders

Essentially, any repulsorlift vehicle designed for planetary operations is defined as speeder. Usually speeders are divided into two classes, based on their operating altitude:

• Landspeeders, that are designed to operate close to a planet's surface, no higher than a few meters;
• Airspeeders, that sports more powerful repulsorlifts and can reach much higher altitudes, anywhere from hundreds of meters to low-orbital altitudes.

Landspeeders are also known as skimmers or floaters and are used mainly for short-range civilian transports.

Swoops and podracers are also to be mentioned in this category, since they are somehow variations of speeder bikes.
