The T-wing is more of a heavy airspeeder than it is anything else if I recall correctly. And the K-wing (comon in the NR 6th fleet) is a heavy tactical space bomber.

5th Fleet.

The T-Wing was a light interceptor that was phased out in favor of ze A-Wing. It became mostly a private/criminal fighter.

The K-Wing is a short-range strike and support bomber.

You were thinking V-Wing, not T-Wing. The V-Wing is the new NR airspeeder.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

Just wondering where the K-wing lies compared to a B-wing, stronger, weaker or different enough roles that it doesn't really matter?
