The Millennium Falcon has a long and mysterious history. This vessel is highly modified from its original state of being a stock YT-1300 Transport. Originally owned by Lando Calrissian, he made some modifications to this ship. He lost this ship to Captain Solo in a high stakes Sabacc game when he had no money left to wager years before the Battle of Yavin. As it turns out, Lando Calrissian obtained the Millennium Falcon in the same manner just as he was beginning his gambling career. Captain Solo also has made some "special modifications" to this ship. This vessel is capable of going 0.5 past light speed, thus makes this ship nearly twice as fast as the speediest Imperial warship in the Galaxy. And not to mention one of the fastest ships in the Galaxy. As this freighter is principally a smuggling ship, Captain Solo installed smuggling compartments underneath the deck plates of this craft. The Falcon has been equipped with a top-of-the-line and highly illegal sensor suite system to detect incoming Imperial ships long before they make notice of this craft. The deflector-shield system of the Falcon was stolen from Imperial maintenance facilities at Myomar. The Millennium Falcon's weapons load exceeds legal limits throughout the Galaxy. A mediscan unit has also been installed onboard, which can diagnose and treat blaster wounds and deep flesh wounds.

The appearance of the battered hull is one of Captain Solo's smuggling secrets to evade Imperial Custom ships by giving Imperial Inspectors nothing to suspect in the first place. With this in mind, this craft appears no different to the thousands of YT-1300 Transports that operate the in the space lanes of the Empire. This dilapidated looking craft has an incredibly short start-up sequence of about three minutes. A dangerous mix of different systems make up the Falcon, it is a wonder how this ship operates at all. The Falcon's modifications are a combination of kit-bashed and jury-rigged machinery, and any "sane" technician who has taken a look at them wonders how Captain Solo has accomplished the impossible. It is these modifications that makes this craft superior to most. However it is these modifications that are the sources of constant maintenance and expense, as Captain Solo has to continually replace temperamental and custom designed parts to guarantee reliable performance of the Falcon.

Captain Solo's modifications push this ship far past the manufacturer's original specifications and thus Captain Solo frequently has to make last minute repairs to get the Falcon flying. Often the three droid brains on the Falcon predict that the ship will not even leave the ground. The Millennium Falcon is usually prone to system failures at the worst possible moments. This highly modified vessel is now part of the Rebel Alliance and is still captained by Captain Solo and First Mate Chewbacca. This ship was famous in smuggling circles before this craft became famous in its criminal services to the Rebel Alliance.
