Notes: In game schematic description: Alliance RZ-1 A-wing Starfighter By far the fastest starfighter used in the Galactic Civil War, The compact A-wing is the Rebel Alliance's response to the Empire's growing number of TIE fighters and TIE variants. Because of its speed, the A-wing excels at hit-and-run missions, long-ranged patrols and reconnaissance, and surgical strikes against large starships. A stock A-wing's speed is provided by two powerful Novaldex J-77 "Event Horizon" engines. A combination of adjustable thrust-vector controls built into each engine and thruster-control jets located between the engine supply the vehicle's famed maneuverability. Unfortunately, the A-wing's control are notoriously sensitive and few pilots can handle the craft at top speed. The A-wing relies on its speed and agility in combat. Its armament is relatively weak, constisting of two wing-mounted blaster cannons. A-wings require constant mainenance, and the Alliance has found it extremely difficult to keep a squadron of A-wings operational for any length of time. Despite this, the A-wing is quickly becoming one of the galaxy's most prominent interceptor fighters.
