The T-65B X-wing starfighter was a heavily modified version of the classic X-wing starfighter produced by Incom Corporation. They were faster, more updated fighters compared to their predecessors, but still slower than and not as heavily armed as the Imperial TIE Defender.

[edit] History

During the planning stages for the T-65B, turncoat technician Ral Shawgrim attempted to deliver a near-complete set of plans for the starfighter to Sienar Fleet Systems. However, despite his escape, the plans were retrieved. The starfighter itself made it into service, and at least some members of Rogue Squadron were piloting the starfighter during the campaign against Lord Shadowspawn. Rogue Squadron's T-65B fighters were used to deploy flechette torpedoes at the Battle of the Corellian Queen.
