JandoFett1842 Posted July 13, 2002 Author Share Posted July 13, 2002 Originally posted by Darth Knight e wing??? what is that???? i like the mellenium falcon The E-Wing is . . . FreiTek E-Wing Starfighter: Not as well known as its incredibly famous counterpart the X-Wing, the E-wing is in fact the brainchild of the same design team that designed the fabled X-wing: The design staff from the Incom coorporation had fled to the Rebel alliance with the designs for the X-wing, and once they were free of the Empire, they started a new compagnie, named FreiTek. The E-Wing is the first of the new designs to come out of the FreiTek workstations. The E-Wing was originally designed to do much the same job of the older A-wing fighter, to protect convoys from raiding forces. However, due to the fighters large firepower, strong armor, and incredible acceleration, the E-Wing is increasingly used as a replacement to the X-Wing, and even as a medium Fighter/Bomber. The pilots flying the E-Wing have realized that their craft is the equal to a Tie-interceptor in speed and maneuvrability, and take great pride in the fighters capabilities. In their eyes, the E-Wing is a better design than the fabled X-wing (they are right). In the battle against the imperial Admiral Thrawn, especially at Calamari, these new fighters proved their worth. The E-Wing is slightly shorter than the X-Wing, and its cockpit is located just in front of the center of the fighter. Because of the need to place nearly all drive and lifesupport systems in the rear of the fighter, and the large amount of Proton torpedoes in its front section, the E-Wing looks a bit more stubby than the X-Wings sleek shape. If the pilot has to eject, the top of the cockpit is blow off and the pilot ejects out of the top of the fighter. Directly behind the pilot is a compartment wich holds the astromech droid. Unlike in the X-Wing, the astromech droid is completely located inside of the hull of the fighter, and as such is much less vulnerable. Behind the droid are the complex power systems and hyperdrive of the fighter. Unfortunately these new systems are so complicated that a new kind of astromech droid had to be designed to handle them, and much of the cost of the fighter comes from the new systems and droid. The fighter has only two large wings, but these are much more resillient than the S-Foils of the X-Wing fighter, and there is no time lost deploying the wings for combat. The fighter has two huge ion engines, one under each wing. Two of the laser cannons are mounted on the outside end of the wings, next to the engines, with a third cannon located above the cockpit. Since the fighter is as aerodynamic as a X-Wing, it operates just as well within an atmosphere and that was one reason for the way the fighter was designed. The fighters laser cannons are individually just as powerful as those on the Y-Wing but since there are three mounts instead of two, the ability to inflict damage is greater. It takes very few shots to destroy a Tie fighter with the laser cannons. The fighter carries more Proton Torpedoes than the Y-Wing carries but only has one launcher with a total of sixteen torpedoes but the launcher is designed to be able to fire two torpedoes at the same time. The Torpedoes are the equivalent of long range missiles in Rifts. These torpedoes are the main weapon normally used against larger ships or ground targets, but can target other fighters if needed. In many ways, the fighter is as good as the fighters within the Three Galaxies. The fighter is not quite as long ranged as some but still has a very good range and endurance. It carries nearly as many missiles as most of the fighters within the Three Galaxies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XERXES Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 Tie-Defender(not listed) Name/Model# TIE/de Defender Designer/Manufacturer Sienar Fleet Systems Combat Designation Long-range Fighter/Bomber/Interceptor Propulsion System SFS P-sz9.7 Twin Ion Engines Crew 1 pilot Speed Rating 155 MGLT (some reports over 200) Weapons Four SFS L-s9.3 Laser Cannons Two Ion Cannons Two Warhead Launchers (up to 16 torpedoes) Hyperdrive SFS ND9 Hyperdrive Activator Unit Shields/Armor Forward/Rear projecting Novaldex Shields (200SBD); Titanium hull with Quadranium Steel armored Solar Panels The TIE Defender is an advanced TIE model employing shields and a hyperdrive. This 10-meter starfighter took the stability and agility of the TIE Interceptor's bent-wing design and added a third bent-wing to it. Not much is known about the TIE/de, as it was never fully accepted in battle and never mass-produced. The TIE Defender was used to defeat the traitor Admiral Zaarin, although the missions were so secret that very few Imperial officials were unaware of its role. The TIE Defender was produced at a cost of over 300,000 credits per fighter - about five times the cost of a TIE/ln. This, plus the political upheaval created by the Battle of Endor and the fact that it had an aft blindspot created by the wing placement, led to the demise of the TIE Defender as a widely-accepted starfighter. edit: pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XERXES Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 this one is for you Kyth'emos Name/Model: TIE Advanced Designer/Manufacturer: Sienar Fleet Systems Length: 10 Meters Crew: 1 Speed Rating: 145MGLT Weapons: 4 Single or Fire-linked Laser Cannons 2 SFS M-G-2 General Purpose Warhead Launchers Description: The TIE Advanced is the most deadly fighter the Imperials have produced so far. It is based on a design from Lord Darth Vader. Equipped with fast-recharging shields and an extended Twin Ion Engine capacity, this new ship can out-speed the Rebel X-wing, and provides safety for the pilot as this is one of the few fighters in the TIE range to have shields. The TIE Advanced is also equipped with a hyperdrive allowing it to be just that bit more independent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the key designers of the ship was Seti Ashgad. They are 11.8 meters in length, and were equipped with twin engines, forked tails, and bomb pylons. They were famous for how much punishment they could take in battle. Each Headhunter was equipped with up to 3 blaster cannons on each wing, a concussion missile launcher, and a unique bubble canopy that allowed its pilot an almost 360-degree view of the sky around him. They employed a holographic, heads-up display that made the bubble canopy even more effective. However, the Z-95 lacked a hyperdrive. With the advent of the X-wing, the Z-95 became relegated to smugglers' armies and backwater usage, but still serve with the Rebels because of their durability, which can only be explained by its structural toughness, easy availability, and low maintenance needs. So many Z-95s have been produced by Incom and Subpro over the decades that it is likely that, with the exception of the TIE Fighter, there are more Z-95s in use than any other starfighter. The following are variations of the Z-95: The Z-95 I3 this was the "Improved Model 3" version of the Z-95 Headhunter starfighter. It was armedwith a pair of triple blasters, and was generally considered the most popular of the Headhunters. The Z-95 Mark I was an early version of the Z-95 Headhunter and had a swing-wing design. It was armed with a pair of triple blasters and a concussion missile launcher. Z-95-AF4 is the common designation of the basic Z-95 Assault Fighter 4, a heavier version of the basic Z-95 Headhunter. The Z-95C4d is a ground-support version of the Z-95 Headhunter, and has bombing capabilities. The Z-95ER is an extended-range version of the Z-95 Headhunter. Z-95Mk1 was another designation of the original Z-95 Mark I Headhunter. The Z-95ML is a missile-launching version of the Z-95 Headhunter. The Z-95XT is a two-seat version of the Z-95 Headhunter used for training. The Z-95XT lacks the basic Z-95's concussion missiles . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Vaders X1 Tie Advance, the orignial cost way to much to mass produce, with shields and a hyperdrive, but they modified the design and took out the shields and hyperdrive and added 4 laser cannons for more of a punch. Does this asw your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
