My favorite is the X-Wing. It looks very cool and streamlined compared to the other Rebel fighters. The X-Wing is the best Star Wars fighter ever !

E-wing is my favourite, even though it isn't the best.

I'll take B-wing any day. I've got TIE Defender kills painted on my B-wing's hull in X-Wing: Alliance. :D It rocks.

The B-wing is pretty snazzy, and is my second favourite Rebel starfighter. I choose an X-wing though, it just has a nice balance of all the things you'd want and need - maneouvrability, speed, weaponry. Not too heavy, not too light. :D

X-Wing, hands down. It's the hot-rod among starfighters.

I'll take an E-wing. It's quick enough for my tastes, and it has 16 topedoes to make my heavy thumb very happy. :twisted:

Although in terms of piloting an attack craft, the V-Wing. Sure it's an airspeed,er. but its god rapid fire mode and cluster seeker missiles man!

I've always had problems picking a favorite fighter. There is something about almost every one of them that I really like, be it performance, firepower, or just plain looks. I could go though a whole list of the fighters and what I like about them, but I'm too tired right now, maybe tomorrow.

Have fun being cannon fodder.

X-Wing all the way!

TIE Advanced, with the tractor beam, for catching those pesky Defenders.

TIE Advanced (also called Avenger). That shielded, fast, hyperdrive-equipped and to the teeth armed fighter is the deadliest thing ever seen. I killed X-Wings left and right with it.
The Defender comes a bit behind as the 2nd favourite.

And I like the T-A because Maarek Steele also flies one.

A-Wing

Very fast, very maneuvrable (or is it maneuverable?), but lightly armed, shielded, and armored.

Nive for hit and fade attacks though :)

Does the Skipray Blastboat count as fighter? If so, that's my vote.

Missle Boat. Fast as avenger, more torps than an E-Wing and just to damn cool.

My fave is the X-Wing or TIE Interceptor.

I like the designs for both...though for sheer killing purposes, the TIE Defender is unmatched.

I've always liked the B-wing myself, although Y-wings have a very cool design.

B-Wing for assault missions but for everything else the good old X-Wing!

I'm an Imperial through and through so i'd pick the Tie Defender. As well armed as a B-Wing but with the classic TIE design.

Actually with the SLAM you could go well past a TIE Defender's top speed (Based on TIE Fighter).

I could get the Defender to ~273MGLT, with all power to engines.

The Missile Boat, with all power to engines, SLAM's on and constantly transfering shield energy to lasers could eventually reach 400MGLT+

A-Wing MkII. It has all the fun of the A-Wing's speed plus it has the variable arc cannons for extra fun. I've just enjoyed the ability to get into and out of a scrap quickly which is what the A-Wings were built for.
