I don't think so but so far very few rebel starfighters have appeared on the show. In fact other then the Phantom and the the TIE the Ghost crew hijacked in the first season I think the A-Wings in the season 2 premiere movie were the first rebel fighters we have seen.
New trailer for Rebels: Interdictors are canon now :-)
Its just nice to see some of the obscure ships making it onto screen where before they were just minor mentions. Its a great time to be a Star Wars fan.
Yeah there is a long, long list of Legends ship designs that I hope make it into the new canon and I've been pleasantly surprised by some of the ones that have so far.
I'd support a change to ESB where the Star Destroyer that the ion cannon took out what changed to an Interdictor. That would fix the whole problem for me.
Maybe they can get George Lucas to help them out with another 'fix' of the OT, using CGI.
No just no Interdictors shouldn't be deployed in close orbit of a blockaded world unless you are really desperate for ships.

How else would you blockade a world to begin with?
The Interdictors hang back and focus on using their gravity wells to hinder or halt escape, preferably with some escort ships, while other warships form the inner line of the blockade.

Hondo. I loved him in the CW series. Whenever I saw him I grinned and knew things were about to get real good. He is a very likable character.
Also, are those white lightsabers or force blades?
Also whatever that is at 1:55 is also pretty neat... hopefully it isn't an outright replacement for the Ghost, since I've gotten kind of fond of that freighter.
Looks to me like a Lantillian GX1 Short Hauler.
