The PT-7 starfighter was first mentioned in the novel The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance, and the novel The Old Republic: Deceived added the "Raven" designation. The ship then appeared in Star Wars: The Old Republic. However, the Digital Expansion Star Wars: The Old Republic: Galactic Starfighter introduced the FT-series of starfighters by Rendili StarDrive that are all variations of the PT-7, suggesting the fighter's proper name to be the FT-7 Raven.
