TIE/I Imperium
Art was made by Kacper Gaweł at Artstation
Ship Class: Heavy Starfighter
Ship Role: Heavy/Line Starfighter
Ship Length: 6.5 meters
Agility (A): 4
Defensive (D): 2
Offensive (O): 2
Speed (S): 4
Special Gear: 1 (Advanced Targeting System)
Description:
At the dawn of the regime change within the First Order, military research began developing a new main starfighter for the Imperial Navy and Starfighter Corps to commemorate the elevation of the new Emperor, Octavian Delvardus. With the combine efforts of Namadii-Entralla Fleet Systems and Imperial Fleetworks Ltd, the work began on this new starcraft's design. During a tour of the Outer Rim by the young Emperor, and before a gathering of Imperial dignitaries and notables, the model was unveiled at the dockyards over Yaga Minor. The project was then revealed to the gathered public as the TIE/I or TIE Imperium, the future of the Imperial Starfighter Corps and as a toast to the future of the Empire.
Although utilizing the standard style of the older TIE/LN and the more recent TIE/fo Space Superiority Fighter, there were some key differences. Unlike the ball shape of before, the cockpit of the Imperium is a more rounded pentagon shape, affording more visual room for the pilot in front, along the sides, and above. It is also a bit longer, reflecting the TIE Advanced model from before, but more oval shaped than a simple ball shape as before. It was equipped with the necessary hyperdrive system to launch it through space as well as the latest in Twin Ion engine technology. Further, drawing inspiration from the Outland TIE Fighter, the wings can fold inward to a 45 degree angle on the top and bottom of the wings, allowing for the pilot to dismount easily.
In terms of offensive and defensive capabilities, the TIE Imperium is equipped with a shielding generator to enhance its defense. Dual targeting systems, attached to either side of the cockpit, are calibrated for better tracking and aiming of the starfighter's twin laser cannons.
