Tie Defender - Star War Rebels All Scenes

This video features the 3 appearances of the Tie Defender in Star Wars Rebels.

[@mider9996]

Sidious: these tie defenders are amazing but cost too much...btw how’s that second Death Star going?

[@smoketinytom]

Mider999 You grace the lineage to the F-35 engineers..... Or the Bradley.

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

I mean the Death Star would have at least been an enviable long term investment... Had it not been sabotaged by it’s head engineer from the get go. Even without the planet killer laser, it was a literal world in and of itself, capable of intergalactic transit on it’s own accord, ferrying *Millions* of assets, from manpower to supplies, tech, R&D, Prisoners and high value VIP’s that held the highest need for protections, all in a planet sized structure built from the strongest materials of an interstellar empire, reinforced with the strongest shields and tractor beams, hordes of various munitions in and on the station, and a menagerie of other defense systems, ect... to the point where it’d probably be easier to fight an actual, natural planet then a Death Star. Holdo’s Hyperspace Ramming maneuver? The Death Stars sheer size and resultant durability would probably allow the station to shrug off any such blows from all but the largest of ships in the galaxy, certainly much larger then Holdo’s, or anything one would expect a struggling rebellion to muster up. Even if the rebellion “could” use such a tactic to destroy the Death Star, it’s likely have to be the largest ship they ever had, stuffed to the brim with practically their entire arsenal to boot, and if the Death Star has systems to shut down nearby Hyperspace transit, them forget it. And to top it all off, if properly stationed and maintained, the Death Star could be expected to serve and be useful for probably Millennia, maybe even forever, potentially to the point where further upgrades would allow it to engage in Trans-galactic travel, and would have been the flagship of an empire on the verge of going from “galactic” to *”universal.”* Look at it like this: The TIE defender would have been the better option for a newborn empire, doubtlessly. BUT if the Empire could have survived the age of serious rebellions, then the Death Star would have been a perfect endgame for an ever expanding empire. An investment like the Death Star would have literal worlds worth of higher potential beyond an equivalent fleet of upgraded star destroyers and other assets. But alas, the timing was off. Such an undertaking would have been best in at least another 30 years minimum once the last of the galaxy’s resistance had been culled.

[@tripled2505]

@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire also i know its been a while, but wasn't the debate between creating the laser or tie defenders

[@HiddenWen]

Problem was Sidious's philosophy. He wanted a weapon that inspired fear, causing entire systems to go into the fetal position. I agree investing the same amount of money into defenders or more ISD's would've been strategically more effective, but people would still think they had a chance.

[@WingedDynamite]

@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire While this is true, the point of the Death Star was to use fear to keep the galaxy in line, aka The Tarkin Doctrine. Unfortunately, this backfired. I agree that the DS-1 Deep Space Mobile Battlestation would have been perfect for an Empire triumphant, but Palpatine had this puppy in the works for quite a while. His whole game was to create an endgame scenario so that he could spend his time cheating death and becoming more powerful in the Force. Thus, the Death Star was what would keep the Galaxy in place long enough so that he might transcend the need for any technological terrors. I feel that the TIE Defender was the perfect tool to counter the Rebellion's starfighter guerilla strategy. The best thing the Emperor could have done would be to continue fleetbuilding while slowly building and completing the second station, and then use it as a mobile capital, as Snoke used the Supremacy.

To be fair, the rebels would have been wiped out, but they would have needed to sacrifice a lot of imperial control over a lot of the outer rim and other sections, since a Tie Defender is like 6 Tie Fighters in cost, or more. The initial wave of rebels would be destroyed, yes, but the empire ran the risk of letting a much, *much* larger portion of the galaxy rebel against them, and we all know how palpatine governs, control is more important.

[@darrellhall6622]

The birth of the E wing

[@nickgennady]

​@@CorwinTheOneAndOnly That is why the Tie Hunter should be standard. It cost only 100K (70K for a regular tie) but has, twice the firepower / can ionize them, proton torpedos, shields, hyperdrive, and faster / more maneuverable than even the tie interceptor which is 75K in legends. They would actually save money since a lot fewer ties should be taken down with shields and such. They only produced the Tie Hunter for special forces. This is how I would set it up. - Tie version of the vulture droid which would cost around 40K. It would work exactly like how CIS vulture droid worked. Overwhelm them with numbers but don't use pilots. Plus it even had missiles, pull off maneuvers that humans can't cause of GForce, explode on command, and do suicide crashes onto the enemy ships if needed. Tie/D is stupidly expensive and I think a horrible option as I don't think it's even that good. Plus its design is ugly as f@#:) - Tie hunter as standard - Tie defender for best pilots if they want them - Tie bomber of course. -Tie Phantoms (Extra but would be really helpful) In Legends one of the reasons why there were no droids really used by the Empire was kinda dumb. Palpatine did not want the civilians to have PTSD from the clone wars. Not cause he was nice of course but to keep the public in their favor. Pretty dumb in my opinion. The Imperial Senate even passed bills forbidding their use on the front lines.

[@kasbakgaming]

Not only do all these scenes show the TIE Defender's capabilities, they also show Thrawn's excellent abilities in tactical assessment and how well he knows his enemy. He knows how capable they are, maintains realistic expectations throughout, and that allows him to anticipate their moves to counter more effectively. Honestly, if the people under his command would follow his instructions more effectively, the rebels likely wouldn't have outmaneuvered him anywhere near as often.

[@Ionstorm2002]

They couldn't have outmaneuvered him. Thrawn is just that good but unfortunately for him too many in the Empire are so inept. Heck the only reason why Thrawn is even with the Empire is because of their vast resources and power which he intends to use to benefit the Chiss. At the end of the day Thrawn's loyalty was always to his people but he worked for the Empire to ensure they wouldn't come after his people.

That's what made Thrawn such a good villain. He wasn't evil as such, he wasn't arrogant, and he wasn't too proud to back off when he knew he'd lost. Extract from 'The Last Command' Joruus C'baoth (mad Dark Jed): You never would have spoken to the Emperor that way. Thrawn: On the contrary. On no less than four occasions I told the Emperor I would not engage a foe I was not yet adequately prepared to defeat. Joruus C'baoth: Only fools spoke to the Emperor that way. Fools, or those tired of life. Thrawn: The Emperor thought so too. The first time I refused his orders he called me a traitor and gave my attack force to someone else. Following its' destruction, he knew better than to ignore my recommendations.

The tie defender, in my opinion, would have been a turning point of all naval engagements going forward had it been properly developed into the imperial navy. As a RAW, someone who knows his way around the cockpit, but isn’t the best, was able to take down three trained tie, interceptor‘s, or considered elites above tie fighters. if every single fighters an imperial navy was made as a tie defender, there would be no naval engagement that the Empire was losing. The empire would’ve had the superior starfighter advantage, which would’ve severely weekend, the rivals, because rebels relied on small craft, and advanced shielding and weapons.

[@zangryomani1257]

I like how the Tie Defender is introduced. Up to this point, most people know the basic's of tie's. always needing to be carried in and pretty weak. Then This thing shows up. It jumps out of hyperspace on its own, and immediately rains heck and havoc on the rebellion. Its hit with a laser cannon but it does nothing, has it just returns with powerful laser barrages on the squadron. Its taken what we know about Tie fighter's, and chucked it out the window. We know a swarm of regular tie fighters is a problem, but seeing how much damage ONE of these Defender's cause. I think this also feeds into its design, being completely different from all other Tie fighters. The tie advance still only had 2 wings. This thing has 3 wings, completely different from all other variants, truly signifying its not like the rest. Its not disposable like the fighter and interceptor. Its not a prototype like the advance. This thing, is a fully tested, fully operational, product, ready to rain hell on the rebellion. Then there's the TIE Elite, which isn't even making the same sound has a TIE, it almost sounds like it isn't even a Tie anymore, its something completely different. It even launch's missile, something that LITTERALLY NO TIE HAS BEEN SEEN DOING (I say see because yes the advance does have missiles but we never see them use it. And the bomber is the bomber. not much of a threat)

Could u imagine if all tie fighters were replaced with this the rebels would be screwed

[@torandreasbelsaas]

An interesting concept, but not doable, considering how expensive the tie defender is in comparison to standard tie fighters, 300 000 credits vs 60 000. Thats 5 tie fighters to 1 tie defender. Even the tie interceptor is much cheaper then the tie defender at 120 000 credits. Don't get me wrong, I completely agree that if every tie fighter was replaced with defenders then the empire would have rained supreme for sure, but the shere cost on that scale would not have been doabol, also considering that at a rough estimate that the empire had at its minimum made 4,2 milioen tie fighters. Maybe have say, the ace of every star destroyer fly on defenders, could maybe work at the start and work in more afterword.

[@Kalenz1234]

0:33 did they send 2 bombers as interceptors?

[@demi-femme4821]

Yo how the fuck did those Starfighters survive a hit from a Star Destroyer's Turbolasers? That should've killed Hera instantly.

[@deadponic117]

"cmon you bastards, take a shot at me right in the nose!" "get back here Thrawn, we need a Fleet commander, not a casualty!" *shoots at the Tie Defender* "if i could find the person flying, i'd give them a medal"

[@valiatus6719]

Shields or no Shields how did an X-Wing and a TiE-Defender survive a direct hit from a Turbolaser?

[@facundopollacino7956]

0:22 Esa fue la única vez en la Vult Skerris fue un piloto competente. Luego sufrió el síndrome de Valen Rudor.

[@Ifues-tb7is]

I like how you still heart comments on a old video.... ok you only have two videos lol

[@user-se2jj7sz7b]

lol thrawn just like so clam others:ahhhhhhhh (sorry for bad english)

[@Leviathan_actual]

Slowest most anticlimactic star wars battle in history

[@mashu_sukotto]

The defender is very cool but design wise I always prefer the interceptor and phantom more

[@MeMaex]

why did thrawn opened fire at the X Wing? there was no need for it (last scene)

[@EpicThe112]

Carry proton bombs or torpedoes that's going to be a problem for a Capital ship like a Mon Calamari cruiser without any escorts being a Corellian Corvette and the replenishment ships GR-75s

[@spynix0718]

Or just a bunch of concussion missiles.

[@EpicThe112]

​@@spynix0718I wonder if they fire it in a barrage would that be enough to take down the replenishment ships GR 75s followed by the capital ship escorts Corellian Corvette. The realistic option for an Imperial Admiral would have been something like this TIE Defenders get released first and then have the Arquitens Imperial Star Destroyers jump to lightspeed with the Defenders then launch the TIE Bomber

[@mattheweaton9111]

U forgot the 2 that Hera took out at the tracking station

[@br61499]

You missed the episode where Ezra and Sabine were on the relay station.

[@nickbuckley4371]

Why wasn’t these and the tie advance mass produced is my biggest question

[@LukasZnojemsky-ho7jl]

OR it only has a nav computer interface and the hyperdrive is a module like with previous models.

[@Mrtankexpert359]

Bro that defender destroyed a Y wing with one hit

[@user-kj2gn3sp4t]

defender shield can garud the ISD's shot???wow

[@bobandmrmecaleb5873]

Where does that alarm sound come from?

[@OfficialDoggyYT]

🤓🤓🤓

[@jimmyandrews3963]

Aw you missed the final defender destroying both a Light Cruiser and a Star Destroyer

[@red3994]

Grand Admiral Thrawn had more balls than any High Ranking Imperial

[@fujifurov671]

Kinda like the shape of the fighter

[@Palace_till_I_die]

I love seeing X-Wing blown to bits by TIEs .. Too bad the Empire had too many internal problems. Admiral Zaarin destroyed most of TIE Defender factory plants.

[@omarbaba9892]

9:52 see EA that’s what an x wing should look like next to an ISD you make Star destroyers the size of a nebulon b

[@GunnerM60]

The only problem I have with the final Rebel assault scene is that Hera Syndulla fires her X-Wings blaster cannons with the s-foils closed. Normally you're not supposed to be able to do that.

[@pokepal148]

It's not impossible, at least in the current canon. The cannons have a risk of overheating if used with the S-foils closed though.

[@smoketinytom]

It’s a safety and cooling feature. Probably for pilots that know how to, they could disable the failsafes protecting the ship nominally.

[@joanaguayoplanell4912]

It depends on the model. Normally you can fire two of them at a time at the very least, the only difference is that you get less precise shots and worse area coverage

[@m.hoffman2889]

so the Defender has missiles, why not use them in the last scene?

[@benkku313]

Mmm tie chicken

[@sumanadasawijayapala5372]

3:40 hey wasn't this scene stolen from 1989 Batman when Joker shot down the Batwing?

[@FATE522]

Waiting to see the New Republic face these
