I can highly suggest the book, as it proves that it's not just the Fighter that makes Wedge Antillies and his group of Rogues dangerous folks, it's their skill, determination, ability, and immaturity.

And, no, the last one isn't a joke.

Does anyone has a picture or an artwork of those starfighters?

I highly doubt it. It was only found in one novel, and even the cover didn't show one. I don't think it's been turned into comic form yet (Or even if it will be.).

I just checked SWAG ( http://swagonline.net/ )as well... Nothing on there that I could find.

The Star Wars RPG network does, or did, have an image and stats up before WotC's Planethoppers got around to Adumar, though the image doesn't fit Allston's description. I've been working on an image I think is closer to his description which I still have to upload to my site.

Of the non 'heroes of the rebellion' books, i have always loved the Xwing/Wraith squadron series, and SF of A was one of the top 3 for me..

I too would love to see a pic of the ship
