- "Admiral! Lock down the hyperspace rings! Hurry!"
- ―Anakin Skywalker, to Wullf Yularen
The hyperspace transport ring, also known as a hyperdrive ring,[8] was a device that provided hyperspace travel capabilities to starfighters with no on-board hyperdrive, such as the Delta-7[9] and 7B Aethersprite-class light interceptors,[10] and the V-19 Torrent starfighter.[1] The Syliure-31 hyperspace docking ring was one such transport ring.[11] The hyperframe was a similar technology used during the High Republic Era.[12]
Darth Vader's personal V-wing squadron used hyperspace rings during a pursuit of weapon hijackers from Cham Syndulla's Free Ryloth Movement.[4]
During the New Republic Era, Morgan Elsbeth's forces constructed the Eye of Sion, a prototype hyperdrive ring hundreds of times larger than a typical one and, according to architect droid Huyang, powerful enough to complete extragalactic journeys, in order to retrieve Grand Admiral Thrawn from his exile.[5]
