Yet another ship that the Resistance should’ve used to differentiate itself from the Rebellion
-
The H-wing was always one of my favorite not heard of aircrafts. For the longest time, none of my friends believed it existed!
-
I'd say the Vigilance being meant to combat A wings makes some sense. Military production companies compete for contracts all the time, so the Vigilance was probably just a different company's attempt to make an interceptor, but lost out to the TIE interceptor.
-
Back in the early EU with the X-Wing games I liked the XG-1 Assault Gunboat being the Empire's response to Rebel heavy starfighters. TIE Bombers work better in swarms against capital ships or ground targets but can't really do offense in a dogfight. The Gunboat was a big target but its shields lasted and you could lay down a big field of fire.
-
My favorite was the K-Wing, the ultimate F*** you bomber, when something absolutely needed to die. I can only imagine how the board meeting for this craft went down. Director: Well gentleman, we have been tasked with designing the next generation bomber for the New Republic. How much ordinance should we put on the craft? Everyone else: ALL OF IT!!!
-
The most obscure, least seen Rebel fighter has to be the B-Wing. After they veered away from the second Death Star's still active shield they were never seen again.
-
I love the Toscan 8-Q from legends. The ability to customise individual airframes depending on mission type would be huge for planetary defence forces. Depending on how fast the modules could be changed the Toscan could have a massive advantage as a carrier-based Starfighter.
-
My personal favorite was the K-wing, got to love that overarmed flying wing
-
The H-Wing and Howlrunner are definite favorites of mine. I really like them, design and all.
-
i think other than the scraping together reason, i think rebels having every type of fighter possible could have additional benefits in not giving the empire an easy way to identify likely rebel movement vs just regular people.
-
I love the H-Wing for the simple reason that it looks like the chief engineer just glued 2 A-Wings together and called it a day
-
Can you do a part 2 of this? I’d love to see more ships!
-
T-wing and the Planetary fighter were always classic designs to me. Something intriguing about the idea of a highly customized T-wing mixing it up flown by a mercenary pilot…. There’s a story there.
-
I’d love to see the Rebels/new republic using Xg-1 Starwings and remark how the empire made a really good Rebel-like ship and even put ‘wing’ in the name.
-
I know EC Henry's long range patrol ship based on the B-Wing is fan made. But what he created with that ship is phenomenal. I would absolutely love to see it incorporated into SW at some point. Especially post Endor with the New Republic.
-
Imagine a capital ship made of beskar, if it performed like the human armour then you may as well surrender because you're not going to hurt it at all.
-
I really loved the T-Wing from the Tie Fighter computer game. Wish that had stuck around.
-
My favorite would probably be the K-Wing. It just had so many weapons on it so it looked really cool.
-
Dark Empire had so many "unique" ship designs. Cam Kennedy just went all out when making the ships. There's a panel where it shows a massive fleet of "Star Destroyers" orbiting a planet and there are SO many different variations of the ISD there you could literally spend a couple hours making a video describing all of them.
-
I am so excited to see a running Panzer 1! I hardly see anyone bring up the Panzer 1 when talking about axis armor.
