TIE DEFENDER



TIE Defender – 150,000 ICs
The TIE Defender was a high-performance TIE series starfighter developed for the Galactic Empire by Sienar Fleet Systems shortly before the Battle of Endor. Representing a shift in starfighter design from previous TIE models, the ship featured a hyperdrive as well as deflector shields to allow it to operate independent of Imperial capital ships. The ship's speed and agility, combined with its firepower, made it arguably the most advanced starfighter available at the time.
