TIE scout

Canon Linked from 7 articles

The TIE scout, also known as a scout-class TIE, was a starfighter variant of the TIE family of Imperial warships that was equipped with a hyperdrive and was used for reconnaissance missions. As with all space crafts of the Imperial Era-TIE line, the scout ship was manufactured by Sienar Fleet Systems.

One functional TIE scout was present within the wreckage of the second Death Star on Kef Bir by the time of the Resistance's mission to Kef Bir, which took place long after the Death Star's destruction over Endor. It was used by the stranded Ben Solo to depart from the ocean moon and travel to the distant Sith world of Exegol in 35 ABY. There, the Jedi evaded the planet's chaotic atmosphere as he landed the space craft before the Sith Citadel with success, and made for the Sith Lord Darth Sidious on foot for a final confrontation.
