EVERY SINGLE TIE Fighter Variant Explained [Canon + Legends]
Alongside the X-Wing, The TIE Fighter is perhaps the most iconic fighter craft in Star Wars. The standard TIE, otherwise known as the TIE line star fighter, was manufactured on a mass scale, with some estimates putting the total number at 4.6 million. Being an acronym for Twin Ion Engine, the TIE fighter was equipped with a surprisingly decent engine with no moving parts, meaning it was quick, manoueverable and low maintenance, especially when compared to its very cheap cost. Its armourments weren’t bad either. Equipped with a pair of LS1- Laser canons, these weapons were relatively powerful, using the more potent green form of blaster gas which was common within the Empires armourments. But despite these advantages, the standard TIE lacked a hyperdrive, any kind of life support system and was frequently bested by the Rebels X-Wings. In response, the Empire developed numerous variants of the TIE fighter, each performing specialised roles in an effort to diminish the rebels advantage. In today’s video, we will discuss every single TIE fighter made by the Empire, as well as some of the upgraded designs made by its allies such as the Chiss and the Imperial Remenant.
Before delving into the aerial prowess of the various TIE fighter variants, it's worth exploring some of the more unique adaptations.
One such variant, the TIE mauler, served as a light Imperial ground assault vehicle. like its high-flying counterparts, the mauler was designed for speed over armor, resulting in a lightly armored frame. It was outfitted with three laser cannons, providing a respectable offensive capability for its size. Additionally, the mauler featured an enhanced self-destruct mechanism, a last-resort feature ensuring that it wouldn't fall into enemy hands intact.
Another unconventional adaptation was the TIE crawler, also known as the Century Tank. This ground vehicle was propelled by tank treads, allowing it to reach speeds of up to 90 kilometers per hour, powered by twin Santhe SSct power generators. The pilot operated the crawler using foot controls for steering and speed adjustments, while hand controls were integrated into the fire control systems, a setup that prioritizes combat readiness and vehicle control.
The TIE crawler was armed with a pair of medium blaster cannons mounted in the "chin" positions, akin to those on standard TIE fighter cockpits, maintaining a visual and functional connection to the TIE lineage. Additionally, it featured a retractable light turbolaser beneath the cockpit ball, significantly enhancing its firepower and enabling the crawler to engage with more heavily fortified targets.
TIE Subfighter and TIE Stealth and TIE BOAT
Another bizzare innovation was the TIE Subfighter, a submersible attack craft tailored for aquatic environments. Armed with a concussion missile launcher and a single blaster cannon, the Subfighter represented the Empire's venture into underwater combat. Similarly, the TIE fighter boat was also designed for aquatic environments, and was able to operate both underwater and on the surface of the water.

    To have Jar Jar as a sith would be perfect for sith order to infiltrate the republic seat of power, but it would be hard to convince the sith upper echelon though. The jedi wont see him coming but the sith high echelon not to sure about the success of any mission given to him so any plan involving him in any devious sith plan would be scraped from the beginning....

    In the quiet of the night aboard the USS Enterprise, Commander Riker and Captain Picard found themselves in the captain's ready room, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation. The stars outside the window formed a mesmerizing backdrop, a reminder of the vastness of space they explored together. "Jean-Luc, do you ever tire of this endless journey?" Riker asked, his voice soft, almost reflective. Picard looked up from his book, a slight smile playing on his lips. "There are moments, Will, when the solitude of command can weigh heavily. But then, I think of the crew, of the friendships we've forged, and it all seems worthwhile." Riker nodded, understanding the sentiment all too well. "We've been through so much together. It's those bonds that keep us going, I think." The captain set his book aside and leaned back in his chair. "Indeed. It's not just the exploration of the unknown that drives us, but the connections we make along the way." There was a comfortable silence between them, one that spoke of years of mutual respect and camaraderie. Riker walked over to the replicator and ordered two glasses of Saurian brandy, handing one to Picard. "To friendship," Riker toasted, raising his glass. "To friendship," Picard echoed, clinking his glass against Riker's.

    Ultimately Darth Bane was a hypocrite. He may have at one point genuinely believed in his plan...until the moment came when Zannah would surpass him. Thus he sought out the ability to shift one's spirit to another body. He may have failed, but it proves the one major risk with the Rule of Two. Darth Tenebrous trained a second Apprentice named Darth Venamis, Plagueis allowed Sidious to train Darth Maul, and Sidious was fully willing to have Dooku and Vader killed, so that he could have Luke go take his form. And just like Bane, he created Snoke, an entire Puppet Emperor, just so he could be killed, so that he could either possess Kylo Ren or Rey, all just to achieve eternal life. The Sith only seek to save themselves.

    One of the story weakpoints, and what RLM mocked in their legendary reviews, was "Palptine was behind it all" repeating all the time, and hinting, that his "mind trick" had literally no teritorial range, as he could influence people light years away. Which is silly AF explanation why people are acting dumb, BUT on the other hand WHO WAS LITERALLY THERE? Where all major decisions were made? Darth Darth Binks. What is more beliveable, that Palptine has God-level powers with unlimited range, or that Jar Jar was the one emitting the "stupidity cloud", and influence people nearby? Even the freaking Gungans are afraid of him, which show that he did some shady, or unexplained stuff during his stay with them. And you know who is also from Naboo? Yup, your boi Palptine, which also increases the possibility of them having some sort of a bond. Also, he is CGI, that stuff is expensive and planned. Why TF add the hand motions and mumbling words if there was no plan to use them in the story? That costed money, and while Disney is spending money like a drunken sailor, Lucas, when it was his company, kept budgets in line for the new trilogy. So he would not spend extra thousands of dollars to animate stuff that is irrelevant.

I love that design and the only one i like more is Stellan Gios' lightsaber with the same unstable bright blue blade.. I also am fond of Obiwan's original saber hilt, with traditional green or an unstable deep yellow (the other color im often given).

He would have revealed to the major characters that he was a sith during Order 66, only to attempt to kill Sidious, perhaps during the battle between Yoda and Sidious in the senate room.
