Valkyrie 2929 was a Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry piloted by clone trooper pilot Hawk during the Battle of Umbara.[1] Hawk and his copilot flew Valkyrie 2929 through the Umbarans' heavy flak fire. Hawk contacted Jedi General Anakin Skywalker informing him that he and the other pilots were having a tough time flying through the planet's natural murky conditions and he hoped to not overshoot the landing site. Skywalker replied that he wanted Hawk to get the troops as close as he could. Fortunately, Hawk was able to safely pilot Valkyrie 2929 to the surface, first deploying an Advanced Recon Force trooper from the rear, then Skywalker, alongside Clone Captain Rex, ARC Trooper Fives, Jesse, Clone Medic Kix, Hardcase, and Tup from the sides of the ship.[2]
