Description: The Deathseed is a design borrowed from the Twi'leks by Yurb. The S-foils of the X-wing fighter were attached to a gyroscopic mount which was then mounted onto the main pod of a TIE fighter, similar to the design of the B-wing starfighter. The Death Seed used the twin ion engines of the TIE for propulsion, and relied on the X-wing engines to power the lasers, hyperdrive and shields. The resulting craft had a bit better maneuverability than the standard TIE, but was a little slower. The Chir'daki starfighters were also related to TIEs in the fact that they also had no life support systems, hence their pilots had to wear pressurized flight suits like Imperial pilots did.
The S-foils gave the Death Seed all the laser power of an X-wing, giving it more firepower than a TIE/LN.
