Background: The First Order TIE/D “Defender” Multi-Role Starfighter, also called the TIE/D Defender or simply the TIE Defender, was an advanced TIE line starfighter manufactured by Sienar-Jaemus Fleet Systems for the First Order Navy. Unlike other First Order TIE models, the starfighter was largely of the same design as it’s Imperial counterpart and featured a hyperdrive as well as deflector shields, and was easily recognized by its three wings mounted around an aft section of the cockpit.
The TIE Defender was considered a fighter-bomber; it was armed with heavy cannons and missiles.
The First Order had a limited number of TIE/D to work with but incorporated missions with the newer designed TIE/sf space superiority fighter and TIE/vn space superiority fighter.
Like the rest of the TIE line starfighters, the TIE/D Defender featured a ball-shaped cockpit module and solar array wings. The TIE/D Defender had three wings mounted around an aft section of the cockpit. It also included deflector shields and a hyperdrive. The fighter was too fast for most starfighters and armed with six heavy laser cannons and concussion missiles—causing high damage over a moderate area.
