| − | The '''TIE Interceptor''' is a [[TIE series]] starfighter used exclusively by the [[Imperial Navy]]. The Interceptor is identifiable by its arrow-shaped solar collection panels, a distinct difference from the hexagonal solar arrays of its counterpart [[TIE/in]]. Coupled with the [[Imperial Fighter Pilot]] the Interceptor has become the most feared and accomplished [[starfighter]] in the [[Galaxy]].

| − | ==Overview==
| |
| − | An evolution of the [[TIE/ln]], the TIE/in has become a feared, inspirational and much sought after [[spacecraft]]. Variations in this model include; Improved Twin Ion Engines, more efficient power plant, arrow shaped solar panels (giving the pilot a better lateral view compared to the TIE Fighter), improved fire power and a more advanced avionics and targeting computer system. The Interceptor relies on one more characteristic to avoid enemy fire other than it's speed: the greatly improved maneuverability, possible thanks to a complete redesign of the solar panel arrays.

| − | The TIE Interceptor has a multitude of roles within the [[Imperial Navy]], the primary being Capital Ship Support.

| − | ===Capital Ship Support===
| |
| − | [[Capital ships]] are mostly designed to fight other [[capital ships]], transport troops, [[ships]], equipment, other resources or to assist in orbital bombardments, they lack the capacity of strong efficient anti-[[starfighter|fighter]] weapons. Except for the [[Lancer Frigate]] and [[Dreadnaught]], all other [[capitals]] have little to no anti-[[starfighter|fighter]] weapons. That is where [[starfighter|fighter]] support kicks in, as the best weapon against an incoming [[starfighter|fighter]] or bomber is another [[starfighter|fighter]]. The best [[starfighter]] for this being the TIE Interceptor.

| − | Analysing the advantage of [[situation awareness]], the use of [[formation flying]] and [[combat space patrol]], a commander will realize that [[capital ship]] support is a natural consequence of all of them, as skills in all the above is needed to properly defend a mothership.
