TIE Fighter
Twin-winged Imperial craft
A TIE Fighter is a starfighter spacecraft in the Star Wars universe, the signature attack craft of the Galactic Empire.
The name comes from its twin ion engines and its distinctive shape—a spherical cockpit flanked by two flat hexagonal wings.
TIE Fighters are fast but fragile, lacking shields or life support, reflecting the Empire's expendable approach to pilots.
The screeching sound of a TIE Fighter is one of the franchise's most recognizable audio signatures.
