The Kyromaster ion engine was an ion engine which was manufactured by Quadex. The engine was used on Slayn & Korpil's A/SF-01 B-wing starfighter, with the thrust directed through four splitter plates. Alternate configurations of the B-wing replaced the Kyromaster with four JZ-5 Fusial Thrust Engines. A scaled down version of the Kyromaster was used in Bespin Motors' Storm IV Twin-Pod cloud car, mounted on the connecting boom and open to the air so it could be cooled effectively.[2]
