Just as the Galactic Empire used great fleets of starships to expand Imperial control across the galaxy, the subsequent authoritarian government, the First Order, used even more technologically advanced ships to unify planetary systems and crush all opposition. With both regimes, the most abundant and ubiquitous ships in their respective fleets were the notoriously lethal TIE fighters. The TIE Fighter Owners’ Workshop Manual presents a thorough history of Sienar Fleet Systems’ twin ion engine space superiority fighter, from early concepts and prototypes to the mass-produced starfighters that fought countless battles against insurgent groups. The history of TIE fighters—including bombers, boarding craft, and shuttles—is fully illustrated with numerous photographs, schematics, exploded diagrams, and computer-generated artwork by Star WarsTM 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 TIE fighters available, and is fully authorized and approved by Lucasfilm. Coverage includes: Sienar Fleet Systems and the TIE series Imperial TIE Fighters TIE Starfighter series First Order TIE Fighters Weapons and defensive systems The pilots, training and gear Size comparison chart

" Dos arquivos de Boba Fett, o lendário caçador de recompensa, O Código do Caçador de Recompensa! “A profissão de caçar criminosos por lucro existe há milênios. Se há um registro oficial de quando e onde se originou, eu não conheço. Mas é fácil imaginar que tenha se iniciado no primeiro planeta que apresentou todas as condições favoráveis para isso: um elemento perigoso, uma organização de aplicação da lei sobrecarregada (ou a falta de uma), armas e algum sistema monetário [...] Nós, caçadores de recompensa, valorizamos a informação e o conhecimento técnico. E não importa o quão antissocial você seja, pois sabe que há desvantagens em trabalhar completamente por conta própria. Conexões são necessárias. Para permanecer vivo e fazer seu trabalho, às vezes você precisa de suporte e de aliados para apoiá-lo. Em outras palavras, você precisa da Guilda de Caçadores de Recompensa, e a Guilda precisa de você.” Por quase mil anos, o Código do Caçador de Recompensa tem mantido os membros da Guilda de Caçadores de Recompensa vivos e informados. Esta edição imperial atualizada contém observações dos mestres da caça, anotações manuscritas de Boba Fett e dos caçadores de recompensa Greedo, Bossk e Dengar, um manifesto das Sentinelas da Morte — com observações de Boba Fett, Jango Fett, Aurra Sing e do pirata Weequay Honda Ohnaka — e resumos de ferramentas de trabalho que acabaram de ser introduzidas no mercado. Também inclui dados atualizados sobre os protocolos de caça no espaço Imperial, o que lhe permitirá conduzir o trabalho em total conformidade com o Escritório Imperial de Investigações Criminais. Descubra as ferramentas e as técnicas essenciais que todos os caçadores de recompensa precisam dominar! Obtenha os conceitos básicos sobre como ganhar a vida à margem da lei galáctica!
