TIE Lone Scout

A hyperdrive capable scout and reconnaissance TIE craft, that was one of the many vessels being used throughout the unexplored and untamed regions of the galaxy, to expand the Empires Frontier. The ship was especially used by the Imperial Survey Corps (ISC) in the processes of cataloging the galaxy.

The unipod hull is much longer and thicker than that of the smaller TIE/ln fighters, but the front end is the same standard command pod cockpit. In order to support the large radiator wings, the wing pylons are the thicker, sturdier kind, similar to those of the TIE X1 fighter.

The wings are bent, but unlike the wings of a bomber or boarding craft, there is only one bending edge. The wing area is above the midplane of the ship, this is to keep the wings clear of the ground during independent planetary landings. As a scout craft, this ship should be able to land in places other than the conventional ceiling rack of a garrison base or warship. The TIE Scout also has retractable landing pads like the larger TIE transports and TIE X1 Fighters.
