TIE Interceptor is an Imperial starfighter in Star Wars: Rebellion. The in-game encyclopedia describes it as an improvement on the original TIE. It uses bent-wing solar panels and mounts four laser cannons instead of two. A large engine system makes it as fast and maneuverable as the Alliance A-wing. It still lacks the shields, hyperdrive and life support that most Alliance fighters have.[1]

In the game

Each TIE Interceptor squadron costs 3 refined materials to build and 3 to maintain. It has a shield strength of 0 and no hyperdrive.[1] The infobox values come from the game data.[2] The 25th Anniversary patch does not change them.[3]
