TIE Defender is an Imperial starfighter in Star Wars: Rebellion. The in-game encyclopedia says it departs from the usual Imperial fighter design. It is one of the few production fighters with both a shield generator and a hyperdrive. Its automatic laser cannons can engage several enemies at once. Maneuvering thrusters in its three oddly shaped solar panels give it handling close to the TIE Interceptor and A-wing. The text calls it a dangerous opponent for all Alliance fighters.[1]

In the game

Each TIE Defender squadron costs 5 refined materials to build and 7 to maintain. It has a shield strength of 5 and a hyperdrive.[1] The infobox values come from the game data.[2] The 25th Anniversary patch does not change them.[3]
