"I'm looking for a jetpack but I can't find one in this sector. It's gotta be a Z-6 or I'm not buying."
―Pride Aully[7]

The Z-6 jetpack[3] was a well-respected model of jetpack[7] favored by Mandalorian commandos throughout the galaxy, from the organized Death Watch to Mandalorians operating on the fringe, such as Jango and Boba Fett.[3]

Fast and nimble, the Z-6 model could maintain sustained flight, as well as offer the wearer short bursts of lift in order to gain a tactical advantage during combat.[3] It had a maximum vertical height of seventy meters,[2] and could be equipped with a top-loaded, rocket-firing missile.[3]

Despite the tactical advantages the Z-6 jetpack provided, the unit was vulnerable to external impact damage. A single strong blow with even a stick could conceivably ignite the jetpack, leading to a variety of performance issues, significant potential harm to the body of the wearer, and even death.[3]
