Description: The Droid TIE Fighter was made to bring life into an old concept. The Droid TIE Fighter Mk II takes all that is great about the TIE Fighter series and improves upon it. The ship uses modern technologies, including shields. With 4 laser cannons and a speed much like the TIE Interceptor, but with the advanced droid brain makes smaller and cheaper to maintain yet the advanced intelligence to provide the CSA fleet with a ship to challenge other starfighters. The droid brain isn’t as intuitive as a human pilot, however in atmosphere and in conditions where g-forces play a role the droid brain doesn’t have the risk of blacking out allowing the fighter to perform various maneuvers impossible for a human pilot.

There already is a droid TIE, the TIE-D, so this may not be approved. Just saying...

As a Mk II version of the TIE/d, this looks good. You acknowledge its general inferior status compared to living pilots, while also acknowledging strengths of it. Approved.
