TIE Storm
Ship Class: Heavy Starfighter
Ship Role: Starfighter, Assault Craft, Bomber
Ship Length: 6.50 meters
Ship Width: 6.75 meters
Ship Height: 8.55 meters
Agility (A): 4
Defensive (D): 3
Offensive (O): 3
Speed (S): 4
Special Gear: 1 (Astromech Slot)
Description:
Standard Armament: SJFS Lb-14 dual heavy laser turret (Modular missile launcher equipped), 2 Rapid-firing laser cannons, 2 Ion Cannons
Drawing inspiration from the TIE/fo space superiority fighter and the BTL Y-wing starfighter, the TIE Storm is the result of the engineers of the New Rebel Alliance fusing the best of two fighters into one craft. Designed as a two-seater vessel, the fighter operates with a pilot, gunner, and an astromech droid, with the gunner being able to handle all weaponry, to allow the pilot to concentrate on flying and maneuvering. When necessary though, the pilot can take control of all weapons, or the astromech droid can assist with rear weapon controls.
The TIE Storm is capable of long-range independent operations, and is equipped with a class 2 hyperdrive and rechargeable shields that take advantage of the TIE solar panels to provide the power supply.
The most impressive feature of the TIE Storm is the engine system. In addition to the standard P-s6 twin ion engine, it has four upgraded 4L4 fusial thrust engines. The purpose of the additional engines is to provide an unprecedented agility in combat, though it is more of a redundant ability, since the turret and the rapid-firing laser cannons (attached on the external section of the fighter's wings) are fully rotational and can fire in virtually all directions, providing no blind spot for this fighter.
