Fighter to fighter combat - Taking inspiration from X-wing models T-70 and T-85 they where designed for both fighter and bomber attacks; The split wing T-90 has been made specifically starfighter to starfighter combat making it slightly different. Weapons and other packages have been installed to give it the edge in combat.
No more astromech - the use of an astromech droid has become outdated and unreliable. Quite often in combat the droids would become damaged or outright blown off. In replacement the Z7-droid brain has been installed to take over the purpose of the astromech giving the pilot an ease of mind that their companion won't be scrap.
Weaknesses: (Provide, in list format, a minimum of 1 weaknesses of this submission.)
No more bombing runs -
While the Blaze Railgun has been installed it has taken up the room of where the proton torpedo launcher and underslung blaster cannon used to be. This has taken away the ability to assault larger ships with a bombing run. But the ability to take out point defence hasn't been taken away.
Susceptible to jammers - while the ship it's self uses jamming technology it hasn't been equipped to deal with anything that will mess with it's own sensors or communication. If used against the ship the pilot will have to resort to old classic dog fighting with the loss of communications and targeting computers.
Description:
The Split wing T-90 is similar to the X-wing verient of starships taking a lot of inspiration from it's design and it's abilities on the field. Although this model has a more sleek and now design for today's starfighters. Although unlike it's siblings this is the odd one out for a few reasons. This model has been stripped of it's bombing capabilities to focus more on fighter to fighter combat. In doing so it now has less weapons but it makes up in fire power.
To aid in combat the starfighter has been equipped with sensor jamming technology and flairs. In the scenario the pilot is been persued by an enemy starfighter they will have to manually target the Split wing T-90 by feeling and instincts. This also can effect laser guided missiles making it less likely of a hit. In case heat speaking missiles are used the Split wing T-90 has a limited amount of flairs for urgent situations. Other wise the pilot can use evesive maneuvers aided by the droid brain and maneuvering jets.
