TIE fighter
TIE fighters are fictional starfighters in the ''Star Wars'' universe. Propelled by twin ion engines (hence the TIE acronym), TIE fighters are fast, fragile starfighters produced by Sienar Fleet Systems for the Galactic Empire. TIE fighters and other TIE craft appear in the original ''Star Wars'' trilogy—''Star Wars'' (1977), ''The Empire Strikes Back'' (1980), and ''Return of the Jedi'' (1983)—and throughout the ''Star Wars'' expanded universe. Several TIE fighter replicas and toys, as well as a TIE flight simulator, have been released by merchandise companies.
==Origin and design==
Industrial Light & Magic's (ILM) Colin Cantwell created the concept model that established the TIE fighter's ball-cockpit and hexagonal panels design for ''A New Hope''. Initially given a blue color scheme, the TIE fighter models for the first ''Star Wars'' movie were grey to better film against a bluescreen; TIE fighters in the next two movies shifted back to being a muted blue. Sound designer Ben Burtt created the distinctive TIE fighter sound effect by combining an elephant call with a car driving on wet pavement.
Combat scenes between TIE fighters and the ''Millennium Falcon'' and Rebel Alliance X-wing fighters in ''Star Wars'' were meant to be reminiscent of World War II dogfight footage; editors used World War II air combat clips as placeholders while Industrial Light and Magic completed the movie's special effects. The Jedi starfighter, created for ''Episode III: Revenge of the Sith'', was designed to bridge the appearance of the Jedi starfighter in ''Episode II: Attack of the Clones'' and the TIE fighter design from the original trilogy. The V-Wing Starfighter, seen at the end of ''Revenge of the Sith,'' also makes the distinctive TIE fighter sound when flying by a Star Destroyer. Dark Horse Comics' Sean Cooke designed the TIE predator in ''Star Wars: Legacy'', set 130 years after the events of ''A New Hope'', to appear both reminiscent of and more advanced than the original TIE fighter.〔Interview in ''Star Wars Insider'' #89〕
