Notes: In game schematic description: TIE Advanced Sienar Fleet Systems TIE Advanced x1 Prototype The TIE Advanced is a prototype TIE fighter flown by Darth Vader at the Battle of Yavin. An experimental craft combining TIE fighter technology with more conventional starfighter components, like hyperdrive and deflector shield generators, the TIE Advanced eventually became the template for the incredibly efficient TIE Interceptors. As in all TIE starfighters, the prototype's propulsion system revolves around twin ion engines, although its solar ionization reactor is much more powerful than those on standard TIE fighters. Despite the improved power supply, Vader's TIE proved only slightly faster than the previous TIE models due to inefficient shield generators, which consumed a great deal of power, and the increased mass created by the addition of heavy armor plating. With Darth Vader at the controls, the TIE Advanced is a devastating starfighter. While piloting the prototype, Vader very nearly thwarted the Rebel Alliance's attempt to destroy the Death Star. Only the last-minute arrival of Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon prevented the Sith Lord from firing on Luke Skywalker's X-Wing. After being clipped by the Falcon's quad laser cannons, the prototype spun into space. Vader eventually regained control of the craft and fled to the nearest Imperial facility. The prototype has been repaired and remains one of Vader's most prized possessions.
