Nevertheless was this the only modern hyperspace-capable fighter available to the Alliance in the beginning. The BTL-F1 has a smaller cockpit than other Y-Wing variants and has a power booster generator placed right behind the pilot in- stead of a gunner. When the higher performing X-Wing came into service were many BTL-F1's converted into BTL-T2 Trainers, but the increased demand for starfighters after the Battle of Yavin means that there are plenty of the BTL-F1 variant still in active duty as fighters, although most of them serves in low-threat areas.

It is basically a standard BTL-F1 with identical controls for the pilot-in-training in front and his instructor in the rear. The second crew station was made possible by increasing the size of the cabin and removing the power booster generator. The penalty for this was reduced endurance and lower speed. Some were newly built to this standard but most were converted from F1's, after they were replaced by the X-Wing as the standard Alliance fighter. Most of the conversions took place after the Battle of Yavin to cope with the increased number of starfighter pilot trainee's. The Rebel Alliance Intelligence has found new uses for this version and have rebuilt several to serve as long-range couriers. This means stripping the rear cockpit of all controls to make room for an extra 40 kg of babbagge, and the fitting of a special canopy to make it possible to jump while in flight without endangering the pilot. This variant also includes a custombuilt powerpack made to fit instead of the proton torpedo launcher and its magazine, which increases the craft's endurance to 2 weeks. The Intel version also features the same nav computer as in the A4 and is therefore capable of unlimited jumps, however, the nav computer is placed in an extension of the main cockpit towards the droid and is therefore suspectible to damage. Intel Modification adds 15000 Credits to the cost.

It is modified for deep-space missions with longer in-flight time. Whereas the S3 has no nav computer (it uses a astromech droid with pre-set coordinates instead), the A4 is equipped with a sophisticated model capable of unlimited jumps. Because of the power drain of its stronger hyperdrive engines, the A4 loses some of its deflector shield strength, though the hull is rein- forced to compensate. The biggest difference between the S3 and the A4 models is the omission of the second crewman's station in the "Longprobe", that space is taken up by a nav computer and hyperdrive back-up. The A4 pilot must fix his ion cannon in one position (usually directed forward), and cannot make use of the turret's rotational capabilities. Designer's Note: Original design, copyright WEG.

Craft: Koensayr BTL-E5 Y-Wing Type: Electronic Warfare (EW) Starfighter Scale: Starfighter Length: 16.0 m Skill: Starfighter Piloting: Y-Wing Crew: 2+Droid Skeleton Crew: 1 Crew Skill: Astrogation 3D+2, Starfighter Piloting 5D+1, Starship Gunnery 4D+2, Starship Shields 3D Passengers: None Cargo Capacity: 110 kg Consumables: 1 Week Cost: 90000 Credits (Used) Hyperdrive Multiplier: X1 Nav Computer: None (Uses Astromech Droid) Maneuverability: 2D Space: 7 Atmosphere: 350;1000kmh Hull: 4D Shields: 1D+2 Sensors: Passive : 40 / 0D Scan : 70 / 1D Search : 80 / 2D Focus : 4 / 3D Weapons: 2 Medium Laser Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/12/25, 0.1-0.3/1.2/2.5 km Damage: 5D 2 Light Ion Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Turret Crew: 1 (Gunner) Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 3D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/7/36, 0.1-0.3/0.7/3.6 km Damage: 4D 2 Proton Torpedo Launchers Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Ammo: 4 for each launcher Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1/3/7, 0.05-0.1/0.3/0.7 km Damage: 9D External Payload; Max: 44D, 3/4: 33D, 1/2: 22D) 1 Centreline Pylon (16D) 4 Semi-Recessed Missile Housings (2D) 2 Wing Pylons (10D) Capsule: The first Y-Wings modified for defence suppression were BTL-S3s which became known as BTL-E5s. One of the few external signs of conversion was the presence of several antennas on the fuselage, but otherwise they retained the external configuration of the S3 variant. The main difference is the special in-built computer and sensing arrays which helps to pinpoint threats and is considered vital to its mission profile. However, it can also carry specially adapted equipment on the wing pylons and in the semi-recessed missile housings. The E5 variant of the Y-Wing is also known as the "Wild Weasel", since it scurries all over a combat scene, irritating larger enemies and making trouble for smaller. It lacks sufficient internal volume to house more advanced systems and control boxes and was therefore only produced by the field-conversion of some redundant S3s until the advent of the specially designed BTL-E9. The E5 was deployed some months before the Battle of Yavin. Craft: Koensayr BTL-A6 Y-Wing II Type: Long-Range Reconnaissance Starfighter Scale: Starfighter Length: 16.0 m Skill: Starfighter Piloting: Y-Wing Crew: 1+Droid Crew Skill: Astrogation 3D+2, Starfighter Piloting 4D+2, Starship Gunnery 4D+1, Starship Shields 3D Cargo Capacity: 80 kg Consumables: 3 Weeks Cost: 145000 Credits (New), 75000 Credits (Used) Hyperdrive Multiplier: X1 Hyperdrive Backup: X12 Nav Computer: Yes Maneuverability: 2D+2 Space: 8 Atmosphere: 365;1050kmh Hull: 4D+1 Shields: 1D Sensors: Passive : 50 / 0D Scan : 80 / 1D Search : 90 / 2D Focus : 6 / 3D Weapons: 2 Heavy Laser Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/12/25, 0.1-0.3/1.2/2.5 km Damage: 6D 2 Light Ion Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front or Rear Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 3D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/7/36, 0.1-0.3/0.7/3.6 km Damage: 4D 2 Proton Torpedo Launchers Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Ammo: 4 for each launcher Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1/3/7, 0.05-0.1/0.3/0.7 km Damage: 9D External Payload; Max: 44D, 3/4: 33D, 1/2: 22D) 1 Centreline Pylon (16D) 4 Semi-Recessed Missile Housings (2D) 2 Wing Pylons (10D) Capsule: The original Y-Wing is a potent craft able to endure and deliver tremendous punishment, but it's not as fast, maneuverable or heavily armed as modern starfighters. To rectify those problems some of the best techs in the Alliance took an close look at the design and made some vital changes to the original Y-Wing. They increased the speed and maneuverability by improving the engines, replaced the original sensors with an improved version of the sensor system from the X-Wing, and finally installed two heavy laser cannons instead of the two original medium ones. The A6 variant of the Y-Wing is also known as the "Longprobe II" and is like its predecessor A4, modified for deep-space missions with longer in-flight time. It does also have an improved version of the A4's sensors. This variant was issued to front-line squadrons about one year after the Battle of Yavin.

The S7 is based upon the A6 variant, but features all of the characteristics of the original S3 version. The original Y-Wing is a potent craft able to endure and deliver tremendous punishment, but it's not as fast, maneuverable or heavily armed as modern starfighters. To rectify those problems some of the best techs in the Alliance took an close look at the design and made some vital changes to the original Y-Wing. They increased the speed and maneuverability by improving the engines, replaced the original sensors with an improved version of the sensor system from the X-Wing, and finally installed two heavy laser cannons instead of the two original medium ones.

Its primary mission is to carry vital cargos and passengers quickly through a high-threat area. The U8 variant of the Y-Wing is also known as the "Easy Eight" due to its smooth ride and high standard compared to a real combat-capable Y-Wing. Because of the power drain of its improved hyperdrive engines, the U8 loses some of its deflector shield strength, though the hull is reinforced to compensate. By using retired, high-hour Y-Wings, notably A4's, and rebuilding them into fast couriers was it possible to release shuttles and light freighters for other vital duties. The first of this variant was put into service about one year after the Battle of Yavin. Craft: Koensayr BTL-E9 Y-Wing II Type: Electronic Warfare (EW) Starfighter Scale: Starfighter Length: 16.0 m Skill: Starfighter Piloting: Y-Wing Crew: 2+Droid Skeleton Crew: 1 Crew Skill: Astrogation 3D+2, Starfighter Piloting 5D+1, Starship Gunnery 4D+2, Starship Shields 3D Cargo Capacity: 110 kg Consumables: 1 Week Cost: 180000 Credits (New), 90000 Credits (Used) Hyperdrive Multiplier: X1 Nav Computer: None (Uses Astromech Droid) Maneuverability: 2D Space: 8 Atmosphere: 350;1000kmh Hull: 4D+1 Shields: 1D+2 Sensors: Passive : 50 / 0D Scan : 80 / 1D Search : 0 / 2D Focus : 6 / 3D Weapons: 2 Heavy Laser Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/12/25, 0.1-0.3/1.2/2.5 km Damage: 6D 2 Light Ion Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Turret Crew: 1 (Gunner) Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 3D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/7/36, 0.1-0.3/0.7/3.6 km Damage: 4D 2 Proton Torpedo Launchers Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Ammo: 4 for each launcher Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1/3/7, 0.05-0.1/0.3/0.7 km Damage: 9D 1 Sensor Jamming Pod (On Centreline Pylon, Weight: 9D) Fire Arc: All Skill: Sensors Fire Control: 4D Space/Atmosphere Range: 0-50/-/-, 0-100/-/- km Damage: +1D identify, -2D detect External Payload; Max: 44D, 3/4: 33D, 1/2: 22D) 1 Centreline Pylon (16D) 4 Semi-Recessed Missile Housings (2D) 2 Wing Pylons (10D) Note: Payload already used is 9D on centreline pylon Capsule: The E9 variant of the Y-Wing is also known as the "Wild Weasel", since it scurries all over a combat scene, irritating larger enemies and making trouble for smaller. The BTL-E9 is based on the S7 variant and its primary mission is to escort other starfighters on strike missions, and make it easier for them to survive by jamming enemy sensors and communications. Another important function is its capability to target the enemy's fire control equipment by using HARM missiles. The E9 has a special in-built computer and sensing array which helps to pinpoint threats and is considered vital to its mission profile. It has a permanently attached belly capsule which contain jamming equipment and carries other mission-variable equipment on the wing pylons and in the semi-recessed missile housings. This equipment reduces the maneuverability plus the speed when traveling in atmosphere. Another drawback is that the E9's jammers shines like a beacon on a capital ships screens. This variant was issued to front-line squadrons about one year after the Battle of Yavin. Craft: Koensayr BTL-T10 Y-Wing II Type: Trainer Scale: Starfighter Length: 16.0 m Skill: Starfighter Piloting: Y-Wing Crew: 2+Droid Skeleton Crew: 1 Crew Skill: Astrogation 3D+2, Starfighter Piloting 4D+2, Starship Gunnery 4D+1, Starship Shields 3D Cargo Capacity: 110 kg Consumables: 1 Week Cost: 140000 Credits (New), 70000 Credits (Used) Hyperdrive Multiplier: X1 Nav Computer: None (Uses Astromech Droid) Maneuverability: 2D+2 Space: 8 Atmosphere: 365;1050kmh Hull: 4D+1 Shields: 1D+2 Sensors: Passive: 25 / 0D Scan: 50 / 1D Search: 75 / 2D Focus: 3 / 3D Weapons: 2 Heavy Laser Cannons (Fire-Linked) Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1-3/12/25, 0.1-0.3/1.2/2.5 km Damage: 6D 2 Proton Torpedo Launchers Scale: Starfighter Fire Arc: Front Skill: Starship Gunnery Ammo: 4 for each launcher Fire Control: 2D Space/Atmosphere Range: 1/3/7, 0.05-0.1/0.3/0.7 km Damage: 9D External Payload; Max: 44D, 3/4: 33D, 1/2: 22D) 1 Centreline Pylon (16D) 4 Semi-Recessed Missile Housings (2D) 2 Wing Pylons (10D) Capsule: This is a special trainer version of the Y-Wing series, and features a forward-looking seat for a second pilot, who normally is the instructor. The ion cannon turret was removed and the cockpit rebuilt to improve visibility. This variant was put into service some time before the Battle of Endor and is one of the standard trainers in use by the New Republic. Craft: Koensayr BTL-D11 Y-Wing Type: Remote-Controlled Target Drone Scale: Starfighter Length: 16.0 m Skill: Starfighter Piloting: Y-Wing Crew: (1)+Droid Crew Skill: Depends On User Cargo Capacity: 250 kg Consumables: 1 Week Cost: 25000 Credits (Used) Hyperdrive Multiplier: X1 Nav Computer: None (Uses Astromech Droid) Maneuverability: 2D Space: 7 Atmosphere: 350;1000kmh Hull: 4D Shields: 1D+2 Sensors: Passive : 20 / 0D Scan : 35 / 1D Search : 40 / 2D Focus : 2 / 3D Weapons: None Capsule: The New Republic found itself with large numbers of old, time-expired Y-Wings a couple of years after the Battle of Endor, and initiated a programme of converting some of them into target drones for live target practice. Usable parts such as weapons were removed and a remote control system was installed. The D11 can either be piloted normally or flown by an astromech droid or controlled by ground-station data- link.
