- "The Incom T-65 X-wing is the fighter that destroyed the Death Star. An almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability, and defensive shielding make it the fighter of choice for Rogue Squadron."
- ―General Carlist Rieekan[src]
The X-wing was a prominent series of multiple starfighters produced by Incom with a characteristic "X"-shape of four wings, known as S-foils, extending out from the fuselage. These starfighters were found in the service of the Rebel Alliance, New Republic, and also the Galactic Alliance. They were originally meant for the Galactic Empire but when the entire Incom design team defected with the prototypes to the Rebel Alliance this deal was over.
As of 130 ABY, the following types of X-wings existed:
- T-65 series:
- T-65 X-wing starfighter—the most famous example
- T-65BR X-wing reconnaissance starfighter (Recon-X)
- Tandem X-wing
- TX-65 X-wing starfighter (Trainer-X)
- XJ Series
