TIE/ha Harbinger
Ship Class: Heavy Fighter
Ship Role: Atmospheric fighter
Ship Length: 13 meters
Agility (A): 4
Defensive (D): 3
Offensive (O): 3
Speed (S): 3
Special Gear: 1 (Astromech)
Weapons:
-4 medium laser cannons
-1 heavy laser cannon
Maximum Acceleration: 3,300g
Maximum Atmospheric Speed: 1,150 km/h
Hyperdrive Rating (Main): 1.0
Hyperdrive Rating (Backup): None
Crew: 1 pilot and 1 astromech
As the First Order secured many worlds within the core sector and order was restored towards the imperial worlds, the desire of protecting said worlds with the means of better technology was a resonable approach. Based on the shematics of the First Order TIEs, but with a different approach, the members of Sienar-Jaemus designed an atmospheric fighter with hyperdrive capabilities, capable to support the planetary defense.
The TIE Harbinger was designed as a durable ground support star fighter, which is capable of fighting both enemy star fighters and light ground vehicles at the same time in order to controll a planet with few, well defended TIE fighters, designed for air combat than with several wings of regular TIE/fo's.
Both the upside and the downside of the TIE Harbinger are painted in a way, that it blends in with the reflection of the sky and the sea for better cover, though it doesn't give it a major stealth advantage. Due to the support by an astromech, which is integrated into the Harbinger, the navigation capabilities of the TIE Harbinger furthermore allow its pilot to act more flexible when it comes to the own position.
Although the Harbinger was designed for planetary patrols, it can also operate within space, has however no backup hyperdrive, therefore bearing the risk of a pilot being stranded, if the main hyper drive engine fails to work.
