I-7 Howlrunner

The I-7 Howlrunner was a small but suprisingly deadly interceptor utilized in limited numbers by the Imperials but used commonly by Astragon.

Characteristics
The I-7 Howlrunner was based off a predator that hunted in packs; as such, these ships were never seen in groups smaller than four. Unlike many of the basic TIE series ships, these have shielding systems. Their laser cannons have been improved, however, allowing them to excel at dogfighting like they were originally meant to.

Each Howlrunner has a flattened aerodynamic shape with two triangular wings. Two laser cannons jutted out from where the wings meet the body. These ships did not feature an astromech, nor did they come with a co-pilot seat. Pilots would have to train for at least a year before being thrust into combat to unlock this ship's true power.

The Howlrunner was not equipped with a hyperdrive or ordinance weapons.
