TIE/gt Starfighter

The TIE/gt (Ground Targeting) was a first generation ground bomber for the Imperial Navy. It was later replaced by the TIE/sa Bomber.

With one less laser to defend itself and a smaller bomb complement, it was less effective in its role as a bomber.

You can read the Wookiepedia entry here.

I am not sure about using this ship in the mod. I might use it only as a ground vehicle like I did in a previous test version of the mod. What do you think? Is it worth including this?

The TIE Advanced was developed and started as a test bed for Darth Vader. Based on improvements made during its design the TIE/IN Interceptor and TIE/AD Avenger were created.

TIE Scout

The TIE Scout, or TIE/sr Starfighter as it was officially known was a scouting and light recon vehicle used by the Imperial Navy.

A-9 Vigilance Interceptor

The A-9 Interceptor was KDY's attempt to take some of the starfighter business from SFS.

It was similar to the Rebellion's A-Wing, it was fast - had heavy lasers and died easily. Unlike the A-Wing, it had no hyperdrive or shields.

Because it had no hyperdrive it had to operate from a capital ship such as a Nebulon-B Escort Frigate or a Class II-Frigate. (Both were KDY ships, the Empire didn't seem to want them on Star Destroyers)

TIE/LN Starfighter

The TIE Fighter was the most common space superiority fighter in the Imperial Navy. It replaced the Clone Wars era V-Wing Starfighter.

TIEs had no hyperdrive making them dependant on capital ships or starbases. Their lack of shielding and armour also made them easy to destroy. TIEs used superiority in numbers to defeat opponents.
