t-65 x-wing
A fictional spacecraft from the Star Wars science fiction franchise.
The Incom Corporation T-65 X-Wing Starfighter is a fast and heavy armed and armored space superiority fighter.
The X-wing was a prominent series of multiple starfighters produced by Incom Corporation with a characteristic "X"-shape of four wings, known as S-foils, extending out from the fuselage.
These starfighters were found in the service of the Rebel Alliance, the New Republic, and also the Galactic Alliance.
They were originally meant for the Galactic Empire but when the entire Incom design team defected with the prototypes to the Rebel Alliance, this deal was over.
The Incom T-65 X-wing starfighter was the primary all-purpose starfighter of the Rebel Alliance and its successor governments. Known for its versatility and exceptional combat performance, it was a favorite with Rebel and New Republic pilots. Possessing four laser cannons, deflector shields, a hyperdrive, an R2 astromech for repairs and navigation, and a complement of proton torpedoes, the X-wing allowed the Rebellion to launch raids in Imperial space with improved odds of a successful mission.
In real life it was designed by Ralph McQuarrie in the 70s.
