How The E-Wing Made Its Way Into Star Wars Canon
In fable , the E - Wing was created bythe New Republicas a heir tothe X - Wing . It had three labored laser cannons - one on top of the canopy and two on the wings - and was classified as an escort pleasure craft . It had two knock-down engines that allowed it to outrun TIE Interceptors . It ab initio was only compatible with the R7 Astromech serial - droids design specifically for the E - Wing - but was later adjusted to be compatible with any Astromech model .
InAhsokaepisode 1 , Sabine Wren is seen accelerate away from New Republic E - Wing paladin on Lothal as they endeavor to get her to attend the ceremony in laurels of Lothal ’s liberation at the asking of Governor Azadi . This is the first time that E - Wing Fighters have been seen in canyon . They are sleeker than their Legends counterparts , with two laser cannon - one on each backstage - rather than three .
This was the perfect time to play E - Wings back intoStar Warscanon . In legend , the New Republic construct E - Wings when they were fighting Grand Admiral Thrawn and his Imperial leftover . At the conclusion ofAhsoka , Thrawn return to a galaxy far , far aside , and these ship will no doubt be used against him again . This is a courteous call back toStar WarsLegends , and Hasbro paying tribute to it by giving the E - Wings their own name is exciting .
