TIE Interceptor
TIE Interceptor is an Imperial starfighter in Star Wars: Rebellion. The in-game encyclopedia describes it as an improvement on the original TIE. It uses bent-wing solar panels and mounts four laser cannons instead of two. A large engine system makes it as fast and maneuverable as the Alliance A-wing. It still lacks the shields, hyperdrive and life support that most Alliance fighters have.
In the game
Each TIE Interceptor squadron costs 3 refined material to build and 3 to maintain. It has no hyperdrive and a shield strength of 0.
The infobox values come from the game's data file. Movement ratings are internal numbers that the manual does not explain, so they are best used to compare fighters.
