The Twilight (nicknamed "Grease Bucket" and "Bucket of Bolts" by Ahsoka Tano and Obi-Wan Kenobi) was the G9 Rigger used by Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano during the Clone Wars. Not designed as a starfighter, the Twilight had been used to smuggle illegal spice by Ziro and was an aging freighter by the time of the Clone Wars, not able to hold its own in space superiority battles. The Twilight´s design shared some characteristics with the later B-wing starfighter, having one main wing and one retractable second wing approximately one quarter of the size of the main wing. The cockpit was positioned between the main wing and the main engine, and its design bore similarities to the later Imperial Lambda-class T-4a shuttle. R2-D2 traveled inside this cockpit with Anakin. Just next to the cockpit, the main wing housed two small, secondary engines. Despite these similarities, it was of Corellian manufacture. The Twilight also had a small hangar in its rear, big enough to fit Anakin's Jedi starfigter. As a beat-up old spice freighter, the Twilight is the kernel of truth to Uncle Owen Lars´ lie about Anakin. Luke Skywalker's father was indeed a navigator on a spice freighter (from a certain point of view).
