Botajef was a planet located in the Belsmuth sector of the Outer Rim Territories, known for its shipyards.

Description

Botajef was the location of Botajef Shipyards where AA-9 Coruscant freighters were built. Botajef's southern continent was covered in ship-manufacturing facilities where designs such as the AA-9 were designed, built and tested. Huge 325-kilometer elevator cables stretched from the surface of the world to the orbiting yards.[4]
