Comments:
Designed in response to the highly effective X-wing starfighter fielded by the Rebellion, this powerful fighter craft represents the pinnacle of Imperial engineering. Featuring enhanced ion projection stream engines and four laser cannons mounted at the tips of its dagger-like solar gather panels, it presents a sleek and aggressive profile. Piloted by the best in the Imperial military at speeds nearly matching those of an A-wing, this craft quickly became the cornerstone of Imperial ship-to-ship tactics.
