    However, the Death Star Class 2 shielding was impenetrable by smaller craft. As you recall, all approaching craft were required to give a security code that had to be verified before the shield was lowered, also once the rebels determined the shield generator had not been destroyed all craft were ordered to pull up meaning they would have been destroyed once they came in contact with it.

    We can also make and assumption that this more advance shielding would have been part of the completed design of the Class 2 Death Star. So transporting anything would not have worked as long as the shielding was maintained. Also one more note, the Class 2 Death Star was able to fire its main weapon through its own shield.

    Returning to normal insanity mode…
    And yet a YT-1300, several A-Wings, X-Wings and a few B-Wings were able to fly into the DS2 and gut it. I'd say it's time to start waterboarding some piss-poor Geonosian engineers for a crappy design.
