The Y-wings do a Torp shot. Drop bombs and Leia make them white K—turn.

The Y-wings have reload, so they should be able to fire 3 torps if the survive that long.

should I change Kyle with Roark?

Well, to change to Roark means you give up a focus on one of those torps in exchange for making one fire at PS 7.

Between Kyle and Dutch, you can have 2 torps with Focus/lock. And a 3rd with just a lock. I think more mods wins out in my eyes.

Agreed

nice list, i like the kyle / dutch combo to have two full mod torps, but it's a little bit low on initiative to be an actual alpha.
