TIE/mg Mining Guild starfighter

TIE/mg Mining Guild starfighters, also known as Mining Guild TIE fighters, were modified TIE/ln space superiority starfighters that the Mining Guild was allowed to use due to its association with the Galactic Empire.

In order to make the fighters clearly distinct from the ones in direct service of the Galactic Empire, they had a yellow color scheme. They also had a notch cut in their stabilizers, giving them only eight solar collectors instead of twelve, which gave them improved visibility, but greatly diminished their combat capabilities and maneuverability. They were equipped with basic shielding to protect the investment in the equipment and training of the pilots. The Mining Guild also retrofitted the starfighter with specialized sensors to detect and analyze valuable resources.
