STANDARD FEATURES
The Imperial Revenant TIE/ln Starfighter is fitted with modern software and hardware up to technological standards of the time, with comparable analogs to other standard systems used in starfighters like it. Its systems are easily updated to match improvements made in the future.

ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Stealth Suite:
  • Much like many modernized ships, the TIE/ln is able to use a stealth suite to minimize its sensor signature and allow it to float unnoticed through space. When not participating in combat with shields and weapons powered down, the fighter can limit its signature allowing it to remain undetected, especially from enemy starfighter grade sensors and long ranges.
Strengths:
  • Jack of All: The LN can do it all, dogfight, make runs on capital ships, and act as a fighter screen for friendly vessels.
  • Stealth Mode: The fighter can limit is sensor signature and fly unnoticed from enemy sensors when not participating in direct combat.
Weaknesses:
  • Master of None: The LN isn’t great at anything. It fills its role fine as a line fighter and standard snubfighter, but doesn’t do anything exceptionally.
  • Quiet: Using its stealth systems requires its shields and weapons to be powered down, and at dogfighting ranges as it is still visible to the eye. Some dedicated sensor ships will likely detect them regardless as they approach.
DESCRIPTION
The Imperial Revenant-Series Twin Ion Engine production line was designed and manufactured by Revenant State Industrial, intended to highly resemble the Galactic Empire of old. The symbolism of the TIE was refurbished and updated, but as the Revenant is meant to be the haven of the Imperial Lifestyle, its aesthetic choices needed to represent the New Order as well. With classical cockpit design also came necessary improvements to visibility, using one way view panels to the sides and rear as well as view screens to provide a pilot with a more comprehensive, less obscured view of space.

Unlike its ancient predecessors it features a built-in hyperdrive and deflector shield, updated drive units, weapons, and software to put it on par with modern X-Wings and starfighters. Minor stealth systems like drive bafflers, sensor-reducing hull coatings, degaussing, and other systems have been included in the design to allow squadrons of TIE’s to approach a system or ship undetected until they reach engagement ranges if they fly quiet. Usually, this requires them keep their weapons and shields powered down, of course they are still visible and so at a certain point it doesn’t prevent detection or notice.

The TIE/ln or TIE Line Fighter is the standard model produced by the Revenant. Designed as a Starfighter, it needed to represent a balance of durability, offensive potential, and speed without sacrificing the advantages of the ancient TIE. While it features life support systems, these are intentionally minimalistic, as the pilots normally still wear the iconic life supporting suits. Instead it is intended to be used in emergencies, so that a pilot is not incapacitated should their suit sustain damage.

The TIE/ln is armed with a pair of Laser Cannons on the chin of the cockpit module and a pair of warhead launchers on the sides of the cockpit module. The magazines for these, located in the struts connecting the cockpit to the solar panels, are secured in individual containment fields and armed upon entering the launch chamber to prevent accidental detonation. In the field, the solar panels are able to fold, allowing the ship to land or be stored in more confined space, but they are not adjustable at combat speed.
