X-Wing Starfighters
Appearance
In war, there inevitably comes a weapon backed by doctrine that changes the very nature of how war is waged. During the bitter days of the Rebellion and through to its most desperate yet hope-filled hour at Endor, the T-65 Incom X-wing starfighter earned its place in history as one such weapon. It was the first Rebel fighter capable of outperforming the lethal TIE/In starfighter. It proved to be too fast and maneuverable to be brought down by turbolasers, and it preyed on the massive capital ships of the Imperial Navy. The X-wing was able to engage escort ships and was equipped with a hyperdrive for a sudden attack and quick withdrawal from the battlefield. The pilot of an X-wing destroyed both of the Emperors fearsome Death Stars.
