Restored from the original model of the old Sith Combat Starfighter. Powered by a prototype twin ion drive system. The dual engines and thrusters grant power and maneuverability almost to the point of instability, and as a result, much of the central chassis of the ship is devoted to managing the reactor core for optimal performance. When docked or cruising long distances, the wings fold inward and weapon systems are left offline to conserve energy. In combat, the wings unfold, and blaster cannons are powered at each outward edge. This allows for a broad attack area. Another advantage of the Sith Fighter is that it is difficult to target due to it's undersized front and rear profile.
