The Naboo Royal N-1 starfighter, sometimes known simply as the Naboo starfighter, was a starfighter used by the government of Naboo during the late years of the Galactic Republic and early days of the Galactic Empire for defense, patrol, and escort duties. The sleek vessel was manufactured by Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps, the group responsible for manufacturing Naboo royal starships.

When R2-D2 successfully overrides the auto pilot on Anakin Skywalker's N-1 during the Battle of Naboo and returns control of the craft to its pilot, the rightmost console panel shows a display nearly identical to those seen on the Millennium Falcon's quad laser turrets in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.
Also, the full-size N-1 Starfighter prop used by Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, is on display in the Boston Museum of Science. The museum also had another Star Wars exhibit, but that was removed sometime in December 2006.
Doug Chiang has acknowledged that an R2 unit cannot physically exist inside the frame of the spacecraft as it is depicted in Episode I and later in Episode II. His original concept artwork did allow for the legs of an R2 unit to fit within the tube-shaped socket, but George Lucas directed him to make the socket tube diameter the same, or nearly the same, as the diameter of the droid's head, which does not allow enough room for the legs of the droid. A compromise was reached in the Star Wars: Episode I Incredible Cross-Sections book which shows Artoo Detoo collapsing his legs and telescoping his head above his body until it was above the viewing threshold.
