The RZ-1 A-Wing is the interceptor starship for the Rebel Alliance. It is specifically built for tracking and destroying enemy ships. They are very agile, but require quite a bit of skill and a lot of pilot's luck to handle the craft smoothly. If you can, you will quickly become a nuisance to the enemy, taking out ships quickly and skillfully almost before the enemy player realises they are being attacked. This is very handy for accumulating the points you cannot get from only taking out the critical points of the enemy Capital ship. There are sure to be many of these ships present in any game in space. The A-Wing is also exceptionally helpful when boarding your or the enemies' ship, in order to get the point from the inside. Other equivalents of the A-Wing include the Republic Interceptor, Droid Tri-Fighter, and TIE Interceptor.
Quite opposite of canon, the A-Wing is relatively easy to control. Even on boost, it is not as fast, as it can be seen when the command "trick" is applied. The further the starship flies away from the camera during the trick barrel roll, the faster it is. From this point of perspective, the Eta-2 wins.
