I have 4 mining lasers to whittle down shields and 3 Particle lasers on my 7 turret ship. While there have been many variations of the X-wing, none beat the classic, orginal, T-65B, its the vehicle of many a young fan’s day dreams and will also hold the #1 spot in my jaded heart.Originally posted by LucyLongtail:Tip if you are having trouble with fighters.īuy laser weaponry. The ship also comes with sweet folding wing action and a slot for a loyal astromech companion. It’s got cool lines, and just enough asymmetry to look great. With four laser cannons and a pair of proton torpedo launchers the X-wing can take on any target, from other fighters to Imperial Star Destroyers. It’s a perfect blend of speed, toughness and fire power. This isn’t just another starfighter, its THE starfighter. The X-wing is the ship of dreams and arguibley the most iconic space ship in sci-fi history. Its, fast, killy and beautiful, what more could you want? 1. With a pair of laser cannons and two concussion missile launchers its not the heaviest armed ship around, but still packs a punch and can even threaten capital ships. The A-wing acts as the primary interceptor of Rebel’s, in essence the direct counterpart to the Imperial TIE Interceptor. You take one look at it and you know its fast, deadly, and meant to hunt other fighters. This is a ship whose design perfectly matches its’ use. The A-wing screams SPEED with every line. It also just looks super cool, with a combination of bulkiness and grace when its s-foils are extended. It makes an amazing ship for any team to use as a transport/base and is great for use in RPGs as the players home ship. Because of that the uses for this ship are just super cool. This ship is the Rebel’s version of a helicopter. Due to this the ship was well suited for rapid insertion missions, and could be equipped with door gunners to act as a fire support gun boat. It’s main draw is the transport bay, which allows it to carry up to 8 passengers or a good amount of supplies. It’s not the fastest or most maneuverable ship either, though it is though and like most Rebel fighters it has shields, life support and a hyperdrive. As a combat craft it’s not all that deadly, with only a pair of laser cannons. The U-wing straddles the line between a starfighter and a light transport. It’s also one of those rare multi-crew fighters, invoking WWII two person fighter/bomers, complete with a rear gunner. It manages to be a very “Star Wars” fighter, with elements of the X-wing obvious, while still being unique and evoking the cleaner lines of the Republic Era. What I really love about the ARC is the look of it. This made it one of more heavily armored fighters of the Clone Wars, though by the time of the Rebellion this was no longer true. The fighter/bomber is a heavily armed and armored ship, with a pair of forward facing medium laser cannons, two lighter aft facings cannons and proton torpedo launchers. During the Galactic Civil War a number of famous Rebel pilots flew ARC-170s, including Shara Bey, Poe Dameron’s mother. This venerable fighter however got a second lease on life as a fighter used by the Rebel Alliance. The ARC-170 is best known for its use by the Republic during the Clone Wars. Aggressive ReConnaissance-170 starfighter I just love a heavy ship that can take a pounding and still cripple a capital ship. This heavily armed bomber has made it’s mark on Star Wars history as a deadly but temperamental ship It’s got a massive weapon load out, with autoblasters, ion cannons, blaster cannons, and bombs and torpedoes. It’s a ship that stands out, and the blows stuff up. Yes it’s super weird, but that’s part of what makes it great. The truth however is that I adore the B-wing. Because of that some people got the impression that I don’t like the ship. A/SF-01 B-wing starfighterĪ few weeks ago the B-wing made it on to my list of weirdest ships. today we are only looking at canon ships, and only ships flown by the Rebels, not New Republic Ships. Today lets take a look at the best of the ships flown by their opponents, the brave freedom fighters (or vile terrorists) of the Rebel Alliance. The other week we took a look at the best TIE fighters, the back bone of the Imperial fighter corp and some of the most iconic bad guy ships in sci-fi history. Many of their models are iconic parts of Star Wars lore, and a huge part of the moives, shows, comics, books, and games revolve about fighters and fighter combat. Starfighters, or snubfighters, are a huge part of Star Wars. Let’s take a look at the best fighters flown by the Rebel Alliance.
