The Incom T-65 X-wing is the fighter that killed the Death Star.

An almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability, and defensive sheilds, makes this the fighter of choice for Rogue Squadron, except when the mission profile disallows it.

In addition to 4 blaster cannons, the X-wing can carry a number of proton torpedoes. It's power by 4 fusial trhust engines, and requires an on-board astromech droid for peak performance.

A vectral was an engine component designed to scatter and dampen exhaust emissions, thereby reducing a starship's sensor profile. The vectrals also served as a steering mechanism by redirecting the exhaust in flight to alter the ship's heading. Koensayr Manufacturing's BTL Y-wing starfighters employed disk-shaped vectrals at the end of their Ion Jet engines.

Regardless, I'm still so fucking pissed that they actually did an event in Star Wars Galaxies to celebrate "zombies now in Star Wars!"

The Millennium Falcon has a hyperdrive that's rated at Class 0.5, which is incredibly fast. All Imperial ships and fighters have a Class 1.0 hyperdrive, which is slower, while most civilian ships have Class 2.0 or higher. So Han wasn't exaggerating the ship's speed.

Also, what he said about the Kessel Run still stands, because that route passes by The Maw, a treacherous region full of black holes, which means ships have to take a wide route around it. The Falcon was able to skirt past the black holes as a much closer distance.

That's true.

Even though they slowed it down a little in xwing and it turned like a brick, I liked its laser grouping.
Both cannons close together fired linked and fully charged would fuck a standard tie in one.

how does a small ass ship like an x wing have a hyper drive, i always thought of them as similar to warp drive in startrek. Like iin trek bigger ships can go to faster warp speeds but in star wars it seems like only star destroyers and special speed ships like the millennium falcon. but than out of no where these tiny ass xwing combat ships all have hyperdrive.

Except that was already in place during the OT.

There's no internet in the SW-verse and it seems like people have no way to communicate via hyperdrive, so it's basically all word of mouth and messengers for news delivery. It's not unbelievable that the Jedi would be completely unknown to backwater planets that were never visited by them, especially since the PT showed us that the Jedi were more monks/politicians that stayed behind the scenes and only made public appearances when necessary.

She's really the worst of it. A good lead would allow us to grudgingly overlook some other issues, but she's so terrible. The extended version will come out and people will say it fixes everything, when at best it'll be a bandaid. Hollywood is afraid of actually making a good female lead, because that would mean showing her being weak on occasion - we can't have that. Luke was a whiny brat for most of the first film, and sloppy and impatient for most of ESB.

The Galaxy is huge and the Jedi probably only had a thousand or so members. They were considered a legend on most planets outside of the republic and even most citizens probably barely had much to do with them. When the Empire took control they went to great lengths to erase the Jedi from history. It's not inconceivable that the next generation would view them as myths and stories.

In interviews printed with the books, they say they killed Chewie so that the series would have "impact". Killing major characters usually became their go-to strategy when the series weren't doing so good.

Not so much "edge" as a total lack of ability at writing decent stories. Then again, the Vong wars where such a clusterfuck that one has to wonder why they wrote so many novels out of that era.

They killed EU favorites Mara Jade and Anakin Solo. Gave Pellaeon the shittiest death ever. Killed Kenth Hamner through the most retarded of circumstances. And let's not talk about Tahiri and Jacen.

You ok anon? You sound a little upset.

>>336544587
Stop being retarded. The T-65 made the kill shot so it is the fighter that killed the DS.

Saying it isnt because it is the planners fault is like saying that if a sniper rifle hits a man, goes through the soldiers body armor, and kills him, he was not killed by the sniper rifle but the company that designed the body armor.

The Sniper rifle was the weapon that fired the bullet that killed him so that makes the sniper rifle the weapon that killed the man.


As for the second part, why would they? They didnt know that was a major weakness. The designer didnt know that getting a special type of warhead into the vent would cause something to blow up which caused something else to blow up which keeps happening until the explosions make it to the main reactor and the whole thing blows up.

Its like people who complain about why Tarkin didnt fire the DS at Yavin Prime. The answer is simply "why would he? He didnt know what would happen"

Worth pointing out that the vent wasn't all that vulnerable of a weakness. It was nearly impossible to hit normally, and Luke being able to use the force to hit it was something they could have never predicted

Because that would be stupid and pointless

Why bring a star fighter that is has been obsolete for nearly 50 year (by the time of ANH it was already considered obsolete) when the T-70 X-Wing can do everything the Y-Wing could do, and a lot of the things it can do better.

The X-Wing is faster, more maneuverable, and thanks to the update T-70 it is entirely possible that the T-70 had equal or better armor/shields and it definitely had equal or more warheads.

TL;DR No reason to. X-Wing did the job better.


>>336552219
It is possible the T-70 simply surpased the B-Wing at the job in question.

>>336552381
You use what you got, not what you want. Did you see any B-Wings on the base. The T-70 isnt even the X-Wing being used by the NR, they use the T-85 (I just now discovered this looking something up) and they only had the T-70s because they got donated to them. I

Han quickly pushed her away. He looked up at his daughter, his heart thudding hard. The first time had been a mistake, a horrible mistake, but a mistake nonetheless. But, if he did what Jaina asked and what he so dreadfully wanted, there would be no justification for his actions at all, except his perverse lust for his own daughter.

The First Order is a tiny fraction of what the Empire was.

One year after Endor the Empire and Rebels fought the battle of Jakku. The Empire lost their last SSD and got beat so hard they were done as a fighting force. They were forced to sign the space treaty of Versailles.

They had to pay reparations and were forced to demilitarizes. The Empire withered away and died off. The First Order broke off from it and retreated away and began to rebuild. First rearming in secret and shit. Also the Republic didn't consider them much of a threat and ignored things so that's why the Resistance came about.
