Fine Molds SW16 1:72 Star Wars Darth Vader's Tie Fighter

Product Information

Developed to Darth Vader's specifications, Sienar Fleet Systems constructed the TIE Advanced x1 as a predecessor to their cutting edge fighters, the TIE Avenger and the TIE interceptor. Like the standard TIE fighter, the x1 prototype features powerful twin laser cannons and two solar gather panels that provide power to the ship's systems. Twin ion engines propel the craft at amazing speeds. Unlike the standard TIE/In starfighter, the x1 had a much more robust space frame, with reinforced durasteel alloy hull providing greater protection from enemy fire and stability during strenuous maneuvers. Abandoning previous Imperial design policies, considerable resources were spent to make the TIE Advanced hyperspace-capable, and the fighter was even equipped with deflector shields.
