Fine. Here’s your T-85

By Imperial Advisor Arem Heshvaun, in X-Wing

I wouldn't mind there being juuustjuuust enough t-85s for...just Poe

Poe in an Xwing has been consistently enjoyable for me, even if the fiasco on the completely unsupported dreadnaught was a showcase of the FO's incompetence

Poe in an Xwing is just too **** fun. The Resistance showing up at Maz's is definitely one of my favorite setpieces across even all the movies

Yup. That phat Cadillac of a ship would look awesome in black+orange.

Who am I kidding, anything looks amazing in black+orange. ANYTHING.

Not my Catholic high school Sophomore Eccomics teacher. Thanks for bringing back a scary long buried memory to light. 😔

Edit - This is TRUE. Her name was Mrs. IMPERIAL. Pronounced with a Spanish accent. I swear on this.

So... the Resistance had T-85s after all?

Said FO. I'm guessing it's a drone to use for target practice.

I'm not sure they are based on T-85 but that might be closer than a T-70 at least. I think they might actually just be vaguely "x-wing like." The nose is fairly different, as are the wings as mentioned. The area behind the cockpit seems fairly different to me as well. Concept art can be seen here: https://www.starwars.com/series/star-wars-resistance/live-fire-episode-guide

I'm guessing that they either had Sienar-Jaemus or whoever reverse engineer and build their own version as drones, or maybe they got a hold of some T-70s and heavily modified them. To me, they look like new designs.

Well. Amazing...ly scary? Definitely made an impression, anyway.

You're welcome, btw.
