well, duh. Its the stupid AI. Given two equal pilots, the TIE Advanced should win.

the A-Wing is kinda like a MiG-25...plane built around two HUGE fvcking engines...

I love the Y-wing though...big, ponderous and heavy...but get a squadron of those things flying, blasting the fvck outta everything in sight, and you've got a winnar.

The Y-Wing was the most frustrating fighter to fly. So slow it took forever to get anywhere.

the essential guide to vehicle and vessels?

Yup. I've had that thing since I was like 12.

Howard, if the TIE defender doesn't count, then a lot of them don't count, 'cause they're in the books.


I'll take the Sun Crusher. :evil:

AYE. Tie defender or whatever. That thing is a beast.


lol. A wings are fast, but they don't have missles. Shields are rather poor too.

They have concussion missiles, while the B wing, Y wing and X-wing all have Photon Torpedoes, iirc from my days of playing X-wing back in the early 90's. 🙂


pRoton torpedoes... this isn't star trek 😉

because they all sucked. and what's with the x-wing looking type fighter in ep.3? that was messed up. x-wings defintiely didn't exist then
 
I'd be thrilled if even one of them would obey the laws of physics and NOT make sound in space.

it's star wars, and star wars > star trek any day.

slave i doesnt count, not a fighter ship. defender is pretty bad ass, but it's not very common is it.

i am surprised that no one voted for tie interceptors. they are pretty cool too. had to be good to survive in one of those though, like the 181st people.

That would make for a boring movie though..

maybe these fancy star trek/wars ships have some sort of an audio imaging system to help the pilots determine the direction of attack.
