Description

Famous for its impressive speed and firepower, the latest iteration of the C-Wing fighter, the CX-282, is among the pre-eminent starfighters in the galaxy.

The C-Wing’s distinctive twin-fuselage design accommodates a crew of 4. While the C-Wing can be easily flown in combat by a single pilot, it can also accommodate an additional co-pilot, gunner, and/or a bombardier. The double-cockpit design is also ideal for training.

In addition to its biological crew, the C-Wing also has capacity for up to two on-board astromech droids (one behind each cockpit) for repairs, astronavigation, targeting assist, and other combat support roles.

Notable for its remarkable speed and turret-weapons, the C-Wing has quickly made a name for itself, racking up an impressive number of victories since entering service. Its iconic twin-fuselage design has inspired the names of several highly successful C-Wing squadrons including: The Twin Tigers, The Double Dragons, and The Double Daggers.

The C-Wing’s sleek lines, variable geometry S-foils, and powerful engines also make this craft highly effective at atmospheric combat. Its variable-geometry S-foils rotate upward when landed to minimize its footprint in the landing bay.

The CX-282 is heavily armed with:
- Twin wingtip blaster cannons.
- A triple-barrel dorsal turret with a full 360/180 overhead firing arc.
- Two double-barrel rapid-fire ventral turrets for dogfighting, air-to-fleet attacks, or precision air to-surface strafing runs.
- Turrets can fire as blaster cannons or as ion cannons with the flip of a switch.
- Six forward-mounted torpedo launchers.
- Two forward-mounted missile bays accommodate a wide variety of advanced ordnance types including concussion missiles.

Inspired by the SRB42 sublight engines of the YT-1300, the C-Wing’s powerful XJV-34567 engines are largely responsible for the craft’s remarkable performance.

While the C-Wing is perfectly suited to its role as a space-superiority fighter/interceptor, its speed, heavy armament, avionics, and performance characteristics have also made it adept serving as a fighter/bomber, escort fighter, or reconnaissance craft.
