Capsule: Decades after its introduction, the TIE fighter remains a symbol of power and prestige for the First Order. TIEs are primary attack craft, using their twin ion engines to hunt down and swarm enemies. Like thier Imperial ancestors, First Order TIEs lack hyperdrives, and thus are reserved for short-range combat missions. But where the Empire treated its pilots as expendable, the First Order values them as critical flight schools far from space explored by the New Republic, and their fighters now boast onboard deflector shields to bolster their defenses.
A TIE's wings are solar-collecting arrays that gather light energy and channel it through high-efficiency coils into a reactor, where it triggers emissions from a high-pressure radioactive fuel. While visually similar to earlier TIE/Lns, these latest models boast improved solar cells and higher-capacity converters, the products of Imperial research conducted for the TIE Advanced program.
The Empire was a centralized war machine of terrifying power, able to build both massive capital ships and countless starfighter. Though more limited in resources, First Order engineers thrive under a less bureaucratic regime: Technological innovations that might have languished in Imperial war ministries or run afoul of inservice squabbling now have an easier path to production. Ships such as the TIE resemble their predecessors, but technological advances such as compact shield generators make them far more deadly.

Nice! Quick conversion there too
But, what is the TIE that FN and the rebel pilot use to escape I?. It was a 2 seater and if I caught it correctly, had rear firing weapons _________________ "And so I am become a knight of the Kingdom of Dreams and Shadows!" - Mark Twain
