TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The Shadow Wing TIE Shadow Advanced Defender emerged from the remnants of the Imperial Navy following the Battle of Coruscant, commissioned by Commander Isla Sable to bestow Shadow Wing's dominance in contested space lanes. Built in secret drydocks on Valo, this upgraded TIE Defender variant integrates lessons from the original TIE/D's versatility with cutting-edge stealth tech salvaged from shadowtrooper programs. First deployed during a daring raid on a supply depot near Kessel, the TIE Shadow's cloaking field allowed it to dismantle defenses before reinforcements could scramble, cementing its reputation as a phantom predator. The enhanced targeting suite, refined from TIE Advanced prototypes, and retractable S-foils modeled after X-wing designs were battle-tested in the chaotic skirmishes of the squadron early days, proving their worth against nimble A-wings and fortified freighters.
In combat, the TIE Shadow excels as an interceptor, leveraging its stealth to strike vulnerable targets like supply lines or reconnaissance units, where its high speed and maneuverability turn dogfights into one-sided slaughters. It performs best against lightly defended targets or in coordinated squadron assaults, where the cloak enables surprise barrages of concussion missiles and laser cannon volleys, overwhelming foes before they can react. Limitations include its average shielding, which falters against concentrated capital ship fire, and the hyperdrive's power draw, which can strain the reactor during prolonged chases. Potential abuses include rogue pilots using the cloak for piracy, evading Isla's oversight, or over-relying on the targeting suite, leading to predictable attack patterns exploitable by skilled pilots.

- All standard features (life support, navigation computer, communications array)
- Stealth Cloaking Field: Advanced photon-disruption technology renders the craft nearly invisible to sensors and visual detection.
- Enhanced Targeting Suite: AI-assisted targeting system with predictive algorithms, improving hit probability against agile targets.
- Retractable S-Foils: Adjustable wing configurations for optimized atmospheric and space combat, enhancing agility during dogfights.
- Superior Stealth Capabilities: The cloaking field allows the TIE Shadow to ambush enemy formations, making it ideal for hit-and-run strikes against Rebel convoys or capital ship escorts.
- Exceptional Maneuverability: The retractable S-foils and advanced thrusters enable tight turns and rapid repositioning, outpacing X-wings in dogfights.
- High-Speed Hyperdrive: The Class 1.5 hyperdrive ensures rapid deployment across sectors, outrunning pursuers during retreat or reinforcement missions.
- Vulnerability to Ion Weapons: The advanced electronics, including the cloaking field and targeting suite, are highly susceptible to ion/EMP attacks, potentially disabling critical systems mid-flight.
- Limited Shield Durability: The deflector shields are average for its class, leaving it exposed to sustained enemy fire after the cloak deactivates.
- Short Cloak Duration: The stealth system's limit requires precise mission timing, risking exposure if engagements drag on.
