In game schematic description:
Koensayer BTL-A4 Y-Wing (LP) LongProbeAttack Starfighter
Prior to the advent of the X-wing, the Y-wing served as the Rebel Alliance's primary attack starfighter. The snub fighter, characterized by its triangular cockpit and two long engine pylons was considered outdated by the time of the Battle of Yavin, but its durability and heavy-firepopwer has ensured it a place in the Alliance fleet. While the Alliance relies on the Y-wing for everything from escort duty to reconnaissance, the starfighter was originally designed for close-quarters combat with space stations and larger starships. Light bombing runs and surgical strikes are also part of the Y-wing's mission profile. The Starfighter's modular weapons emplacements allow it to be upgraded easily, yet another reason for its continued success. While the Rebel Alliance maintains the largest fleet of active Y-wings, the starfighters are also in heavy use by criminal organizations, mercenary groups, pirates, and privateers.
The Y-wing can accomodate a second person in the gunner position. You must launch while grouped with a friend to take advantage of this feature.
