R-22 Spearhead

The R-22 A-wing, later dubbed the Spearhead, was a state-of-the-art starfighter model designed by Kuat Systems Engineering at the end of the Clone Wars. Although the newly established Galactic Empire rejected mass production of the craft, the prototypes ended up serving in the planetary defense forces of Tammuz-an. Eventually, the Alliance to Restore the Republic procured several Tammuz-an R-22s and modified them into what they dubbed the RZ-1 A-wing interceptor.
