STRENGTHS
- Firepower: The Qie fighters are designed to be particularly useful for the Jedi, who can use their senses to be far more accurate. To benefit from this, the energy system and weapon-tuning onboard were designed to re-route a substantial amount of power to the weapons in attack position, thus giving the pilots a great deal of firepower to work with.
- S-foils: The two S-foil settings allow the pilots a lot of flexibility. In the closed position, they can be fast and maneuvrable to escape or intercept targets. While in attack position, they possess the firepower to be effective in combat.
WEAKNESSES
- S-foils: With the S-foils locked in the closed position, all power is drained away from the weapons. If the ships are caught in combat or in an ambush where they are not in attack position, they will have no way to return fire.
- Weapon-tuning: While the heavy tuning of the weapons results in great firepower, they can quickly overheat if they are managed poorly. Long sustained bursts are therefore not recommended. In extreme cases, the intense heat will affect the metal the weapons are made of as well.
Description
The Quadruplet ion engines fighter or Qie fighter for short is the attempt of the Brotherhood of the Maw on making a durable and powerful fighter and it paid off by a lot. With its 4 ion engines, the fighter is able to surpass the X-wing in speed and is able to take a beating with its deflector shields and fight other fighters and even small capital ships with its weapon.
