Paige Tico’s sacrifice in a MG-100 StarFortress bomber paves the way for her sister Rose to play a big role in The Last Jedi. While the Ninka’s ability as a “Bunkerbuster” is useful for bringing a barrage down on enemy ships, its legacy in The Last Jedi is more as Holdo’s origin story than anything else. It’s a well-armed cruiser that packs space for starfighter hangars and plasma bombs into its spindly frame. While watching The Last Jedi, you may notice that Vice Admiral Holdo was originally in command of the Ninka, the H-shaped Free Virgillia-class Bunkerbustership in the Resistance fleet.
