![]() Due to its flexibility, the X-wing is a wise choice for pilots who's mission goals are unknown, or may change mid-mission. ![]() Thus, the use of the X-wing mirrored Rebel tactics, in general: smaller numbers of well-trained individuals against large numbers of lesser-trained forces deployed en masse. X-wing pilots coordinated their flights to provide overlapping laser and shield coverage, ensuring mutual survivability and allowing a small flight of well-trained pilots to hold off and defeat vastly superior numbers of TIEs. While TIEs were generally faster and more agile than X-wings, they didn't have a large enough advantage to capitalize on. The Rebels countered this by closely coordinated teamwork. Most TIE pilots were given a bare minimum of training before being thrown into battle, relying instead on overwhelming swarm tactics to bring down foes. However, the Imperial Navy fielded large numbers of fighters at the expense of both build quality and pilot training. Rebel pilots almost always found themselves vastly outnumbered. Rebel tactics capitalized on the X-wing's outstanding abilities. To this end, an R-series astromech sits behind the pilot to assist with these tasks, considerably freeing up the pilot's mental resources. The X-wing was a high quality design that required the pilot to balance its respective systems and fight at the same time. Combined with the older Y-wings already in use with the Alliance, the X-wing allowed the Starfighter Corps to accomplish any mission tasked out to it. The X-wing's well-rounded attributes found it well suited in this light. ![]() This reduced production costs, training, and allowed interoperability between different units within the Rebellion. Since they didn't have the resources to develop diverse, specialized craft, the early Rebels preferred fighters with multi-role capabilities. The X-wing's multi-mission capability made it ideal for Alliance use. The resulting design is very well-balanced and rugged, with no glaring weaknesses for enemies to capitalize on. The spaceframe is generally more angular, and is able to hold a higher number of warheads when compared to the Z-95. It retained the Z-95's general layout, but featured quad lasers, four engines, a flat-plane canopy., and an on-board astromech droid for in-flight astrogation and coordination of repairs. The X-wing was based on the older Z-95 Headhunter, combined with design elements from the ARC-170. This, combined with high-quality training and refined tactics developed around Rebel fighters' strengths, allowed Rebels to fight and prevail against overwhelming odds. Along with infuriating the Empire, it provided the Rebellion with a top-notch starfighter capable of defeating any fighter in space on its own terms. However, the entire Incom design staff defected to the Rebellion, along with all extant prototypes and design data. Incom had been designing the X-wing for use by the Imperial Navy. Like most Rebels who flew them, the X-wing was originally of Imperial origin. The X-wing is as much of an icon of the Rebellion as its official symbol, as well as a reflection of the Rebellion itself. With its reinforced titanium alloy hull and high-powered shield generators, the X-wing can take a barrage of minor hits and still keep flying. The X-wing is formidably armed, with high-powered blaster cannons in its wing tips, plus proton torpedo launchers on its main space-frame. These S-foils are closed during normal flight, so it can fly faster while still pulling off advance aerobatics such as rolls. The X-wing provides a near perfect balance in speed, maneuverability, and defensive shields, making this the fighter of choice for many Rebel pilots, except when the mission profile disallows it. In combat, its S-foils are opened to give it greater maneuverability.
