I'd have to the say the X-Wing is king here. The deciding point is the 3 guns in this case. The X-Wing's greater manoeverablity and firepower trump the Oppressor in my book. I find the Interceptor's numbers pretty disturbing considering it's mass.Good luck getting a tier 4 gun in that.

Maybe on mass Imperials do, but not on manueverability at all. Plus they get the best non-master mass ship at tier 3(Tie Bomber) and the best mass to handling ship in the game(Tie Oppressor). Now, you can argue that mass is king, and thats certainly a valid arguement. But Imperials have their advantages too.
You also really have to factor in droid commands into this. People aren't really paying much attention to them yet and focusing mostly on the ships. But with the level of in flight tuning of the power and energy requirements of various components that droids can give, you can do a lot to compensate for deficiences in certain areas.

" believe X-Wings and Y-Wings have one missile hard point, not two."
Nope, the original post is right. X-wing=3 Projectile, 1 missile Y-wing=2 Projectile, 2 missile

I figure the list will need a little tweeking. Some of this data was taken before changes were made. And not all of it was gathered by myself alone. If you see errors just shout out and ill try to update it as best I can.
One thing Id like to collect is data on chassis mods to engine speed. This was turned on late in beta and no one really had a chance to test it. But as many of you have seen differant chassis will modify the top speed, not with a hard cap, but with a small reduction in top speed. Im getting a pretty good list going for privateer (I just made 4333) But I have no info on rebel or imperial so far.

Yeah the skill of the pilot may be all well and good in PvP but in PvE it aint worth a damn. There is NO way anyone can solo the tier 3 missions. Finding a wingman to go with you for an hour and a half is nair impossible (thats how long they take for Imp). Where you see master Neutral and Reb pilots. Why? Because the damn ships they have can pack a whallop! Not to mention take a damned beating. Is it me or does anyone else NOT see that?

Anyone have pics of the different ships. There are so many different styles for the free lance pilots. I would hate to buy a ship generate and find it to be an ugly ship. If the deeds had a picture of the ship that would be nice.

The neutral ships seem to be weak. 
By the way, when I zoom all the way out to the 3rd person point of view, my Ixiyen Attack Craft and Rihxyrk look all black. Anyone knows why?
Is it a bug?

Yah, because imps have such a huge advantage on the ground, tell me what exactadvantagedo we have?The imperial prototype PSG which rebels can freely obtain andequip... game should be balanced as a priority.
It seems to me that imps have an advantage on manuveraibilty, but the rebels seems to have us beat on hard points and mass.Imps don't even get a mutli weapon ship until tier 3, even then it is theTIE Bomberwhich is worsethan a teir 2 Y-Wing "Longprobe" inalmost every respect except mass, even so that is 190K to 170K.
