Here's my short list of Fighter's I'd love to see implimented


Imperial:


-TIE Advanced (Avenger) (Appeared shortly before the events of the Battle of Hoth. Carries standard compliment of two laser Cannons and a missile launcher, shields and a x1 hyperdrive) (Imperial Tier 4 or even Master since it's an advanced fighter)

-Lambda-class Shuttle (Tier 3 Imperial (Heavily armored, lightly shielded and carries forward and rear fireing weapons and isn't fast)

- TIE Lonescout (Designed specificly for Recon Duty. Unshielded and would replace the Tier One TIE or become our Starter Ship. Would in some cases be required to recruite a Lonescout pilot for certain Recon Missions where part of the mission objective is to keep the fighter alive until it completes it's recon)

-Sentinal-class Shuttle (Seen in ANH landing as Stormtroopers discover the Droid evidence "Look sir droids")


Neutral


- YT-2000 (Same requisite as YT-1300)

-YT-1300 (Drop down one box)

-Firespray (Possibly give BH's love and make this a BH exclusive ship) (And to quel debates the Firespray was orginally designed by Kuat as a Police Cruiser but did not find great success due to the way the cockpit was designed and all product was then flooded to the consumer market where it became a BH favorite)

-Cloakshape Fighter (Freelance/ Rebel Fighter (would be only fighter to be able to be flown by two different factions)


Rebel:


-Cloakshape fighter (see above entry)


As you see these entries would keep the SWG ship lines in terms of canon (with exception of A and B -Wings) Rebels have all there on screen fighters in game at the moment (A, B, X and Y-Wing along with Z-95) Imp's in accordance to EU (Which SWG falls into) has a ship branching itself in between the TIE Advance x1 and the Interceptor which in this case would be the Avenger.


Cloakshape Fighters are primarily used by Independents and not one is totally stock. To state you are looking for a stock Cloakshape a dealer would laugh at you since Sienar and a few other companies produced after market parts for the fighter (orginally was not able to launch into hyperspace until an aftermarket design was released) so this ship would make sense to go to the independents.


Firesprays have been in the EU for a LONG TIME (Appeared also in SW Bounty Hunter as they showed that Jango Aquired Slave I by stealing it from a Republic Prison shortly before he was selected to become the Clone Templete.) and it makes sense.


Rebel's gainned there tech from Generosity, Stealing, or within there own limited version of skunk works (Ackbar and the Verpine were responsible for the B-Wing and Dodonna helped design the A-Wing) {If you're not aware of what I mean about Skunkworks do some research on the SR-71 Blackbird and the refrence is from there } So they did not have any other fighters than what we saw in the movies
