STANDARD FEATURES
The Revenant TIE/sf Superiority 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:
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 line 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.
For this role, the TIE/sf or TIE Superiority Fighter is a specialized dogfighting model produced by the Revenant. It has been designed to overwhelm enemy starfighters with more powerful weapon systems, tougher armor, and more resilient shields. 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. It features a pilot and a gunner, who mans the ventral gun turret in a back to back seating arrangement.
The TIE/sf 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. On the ventral facing of the cockpit module, the TIE/sf features a turret, capable of three-hundred sixty degree rotation and forty-five degree elevation. The turret has a single warhead launcher with an internal magazine and two blaster cannons, allowing it to fire warheads and energy weapons at targets the pilot may not be able to line up on. 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.

ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Stealth Suite:
- Much like many modernized ships, the TIE/sf 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.
- Smash: The TIE/sf is designed to overwhelm enemy fighters in head to head and excel at dogfighting, fitted with a ventral turret capable of firing forward and rear and heavier armament. Consequently, it is decent at damaging enemy capital ships.
- Stealth Mode: The fighter can limit is sensor signature and fly unnoticed from enemy sensors when not participating in direct combat.
- Few: The TIE/sf features fewer fighters per squadron than normal, giving it a disadvantage in larger engagements.
- 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.
