One of the most challenging ships for me to make lol, I didn't know if I should start from one place or another, but it was the best.

I present to you the Tie/D Defender line and the prototype Defensor Elite.
Firstly, the Tie/D Defender was designed to be a high-performance, high-quality aircraft, based on the hull of the Tie Interceptor, which in turn was based on the Tie Fighter. The Defender boasted a shield around its hull, robust armor, and a speed that could often surpass that of most ships of its time. Different origins gave totally different origins, but the one I based myself on was Rebels.

The Tie defender was designed to be a fighter-bomber as it has extensive armament such as 6 laser cannons, 6 rockets and torpedoes and other armaments, in addition to a hyperdrive, Which was unusual for Imperial starfighters. The project was quite expensive and there were some sabotages to deactivate the program, but this fighter continued to be used until the end of the galactic civil war, Even though its production has been discontinued. Only elite pilots received this fighter.

Its version, Tie/D Defender Elite was an experimental version and improved the standard defender in all aspects, in which what was good became even better. It would have been a tremendous headache if the empire had mass-produced the defender version, and even more so its most advanced version, the Elite.
