Developed as a special forces TIE series fighter, the Technoid Manufactorum was contracted by the New Imperial Order to make a versatile elite starfighter at a limited production to provide a platform of adept dog fighting and close air support capabilities. Making up for its large and bulky profile with adept armament, speed and maneuverability.
While like many of Technoid's TIE series designs, it cuts corners on the hyperdrive capabilities to favor the raw power of the fighter, implying that the TIE/VX Vanguard be deployed with a proper carrier or fleet compliment, limiting its capability on longe range solo deployments. However all the same, the TIE/VX provides the NIO with a powerful compliment of collective firepower to any space or ground engagement.
