I call them 'Corellian Vipers' and they were a pre-empire product of...uh...Corellia. I had them use the fighter as their own planetary defense forces with the Battlestars as the carriers.
After the Empire took control, a lot of the Vipers and at least one Battlestar fell into (thrust into) the hands of the resistance.
Just too cool of a fighter to NOT use. The boost of speed from the Turbo gave it a special flavor.
The Buck Rogers Thunder fighter, I dubbed 'Thunderbird' and had it as an older privately built fighter still available at various dealers throughout the galaxy. |

The Turbo Boost sounds like it has a lot in common with the SLAM Module.
In fact, while we're on the subject, I'm wondering if the thruster module Poe used in the opening scene of TLJ was basically a strap-on SLAM module, as opposed to an integrated one, but I digress... |
It has been here for a while, let me see if i can locate it.

The Spectre was made as a "rich man's toy", but after several scouts, saw there effectiveness, it took up real quick. The fad only lasted 2 years, as most people, thought the weapons too weak (just ions???), and the ship was a tad difficult to re-fit/upgrade (+10 to the target difficulty for any rolls to add any item in). |
As for the thing Poe had, IT did remind me of a booster pack.
