    An A4 variant, the /Longprobe/, is designed for reconnaissance 
missions, with larger stores of supplies and a navigation computer.
    The A4 also has a special variant known as the Y-wing /Longprobe/ 
(model designation BTW-Ar Y-wing (LP) ). It is modified for deep-space 
missions with longer in-flight time. Whereas the S3 has no nav computer 
for making calculations for hyperspace (it relies on a R2 unit with 
pre-set coordinates instead), the /Longprobe/ is equipped with a 
sophisticated model capable of unlimited jumps, so the R2 unit can 
concentrate on in-flight maintenance.
    Because of the power drain of its stronger hyperdrive engines, the 
/Longprobe/ loses some of its deflector shield strength, though the hull 
is reinforced to compensate.
    The standard S3 Y-wing holds a weapons officer who sits behind the 
pilot, and he has manual control of the ion cannon turret. In the 
/Longprobe/, the space is taken up by a nav computer and hyperdrive 
back-up units. The /Longprobe/ pilot must fix his ion cannon in one 
position (usually directly forward), and cannon make use of the turret's 
rotation capabilities.
    Y-wings also are used on diplomatic escort missions, while the BTL-A4 
Y-wing (LP), or Longprobe, has extra provisions and more powerful sensors 
for long-range patrol duty.
