STAR WARS TIE Bomber (No Mods)

The TIE/sa (Surface Assault), or TIE Bomber as it was known, was the Empire's answer to Rebel capital ships and heavy ground emplacements. Derived from components of nearly every other type of TIE Fighter, most notably the TIE Advanced, it incorporated many different features including the capability of being equiped with a completely modular arsenal to accomplish almost any mission.

With it's unmistakeable double fuselage, the TIE Bomber was able to carry much heavier payloads and was also more heavily armored than most other TIE variants making it the primary fighter for assaulting hard targets. These features however, made the TIE Bomber much slower and less maneuverable than any of it's kin, and was practically a sitting target itself for most Rebel pilots, often requiring escort fighters to accompany it to and from it's mission area.

This is my version of the bomber; my original plan called for glowing bombs but due to limitations, that soon gave way to a simple rocket launcher pointed down. Not the most fun, or even remotely original idea, but again it fulfills it's intended purpose. I'm still experimenting with alternative ordnance delivery systems as well and depending on how Clang is feeling about it all, they may or may not make it into the final design.

Also, I couldn't determine whether or not it had laser cannons since most of the depictions involving it didn't display or use any, but a number of pieces of lore explained that it does have two, wing mounted or otherwise, so I slapped some on at the last minute. Take em off if you don't want em.

As usual, thrusters don't play nice with my builds and there is an issue with the rotors at current that I can't seem to iron out in that the ship is not able to turn on an even plane when the wing rotors are saftey locked. One option would be to turn off the saftey locks while flying but do so at your own risk. I am still investigating.

Anyway,

ENJOY!
