After the Clone Wars, the Galactic Empire spared no expense to build a
massive fleet of warships to enforce Imperial rule, intimidate
defenseless worlds, and destroy all opposition. However, the Imperial
Navy underestimated Rebel Alliance fighter pilots, who flew X-wing,
Y-wing, A-wing, U-wing and B-wing starfighters, and whatever else they
could obtain to fight their Imperial enemies. Decades later, Resistance
pilots would fly next-generation versions of Rebel starfighters against
the First Order.
The Rebel Starfighters Owners' Workshop Manual presents a thorough
history of the starfighters that served the Rebel Alliance and the
Resistance. The history includes design origins, production, and
modifications for each Rebel starfighter, and is fully illustrated with
numerous photographs, schematics, exploded diagrams, and
computer-generated artwork by Star Wars vehicle experts Chris Reiff
and Chris Trevas. Text is by Ryder Windham, author and co-author of more
than 70 Star Wars books. This Haynes Manual is the most thorough
technical guide to Rebel starfighters available, and is fully authorized
and approved by Lucasfilm.
