Description
Get going early with the RZ1a A-wing! The A-wing spawns in at level 7 for Reforged Eden and Vanilla, and features a number of devices, and internal compartment space which can be utilized to stretch a playthrough to mid game and beyond.

In addition to internal compartment space for expansion, the A-wing can see thrusters upgraded, or additional ones placed, and space for additional weaponry is provisioned.


The Kuat Systems Engineering RZ1a A-wing

The RZ1a A-wing is the prototype to what would become the RZ1 line of A-wings. The RZ1a is a short range light interceptor, designed to work out of CV's and its compact form can see it dock inside a number of smaller CV hangars.



If you like the build, please consider giving it a thumbs up

Hello kindred Empyrion spirits!

Let me start with a request; please respect blueprint authors. Often it takes months to finesse a build, and to have it ripped and reuploaded without permission or even so much as credit, can be discouraging, often pushing such authors away from the community.

I personally don't mind critical feedback, and constructive criticism, as it will serve me to better my builds. However, If you enjoy my content, and there is much more to come, respect my (and others) authorship of these massive timesinks. Thank You.





HOW TO CHANGE THE COLOR SCHEME

1. First copy the desired color code found either here, or inside the Condor's compartment with control C.
2. While looking at the ship with color/texture tool out, right click to open texture palette, then click configure.
3. Your green selection box should be over the top left color. If not, left click it to select.
4. Now while holding down shift, left click the bottom right color box, then in the left UI box, hit paste.
5. Once done, your new palette should apply, but to lock it in you have to hit OK under the color palette box.

Armament

The A-wing comes stock with 2 miniguns, and can mount up to 2 additional weapons.


survivability

The A-wing has a body encasement of steel, with some sections at the front of the ship having 2 layers. The build fulfills a light interceptor roll, so for pilots seeking more robust platform, other ships might need to be sought out for dedicated end game.

A good measure of chain reaction mitigation has been done, though some areas might become weakspots if some thrusters aren't properly installed.

Thrusters

Placement for additional thrusters extensively detailed in the tutorial video



Features and Devices

Comes with Wifi, detector, fridge, and oxygen dispenser


Storage

A-wing comes stock with a modest 1.75k Harvest, and 2.25k ammo,

The cargo can be extended by connecting to marked boxes, though with internal space being crucial, discerning pilots will have to decide on the intended function of the build with limited space for devices.

The "H" and "A" marked in the corners of the back internal compartment denote where a connection conflict will occur, so players can decide to remove one or the other to expand out.

Lore and History

The Kuat Systems Engineering RZ1a represents a bridge between the R22 line of A-wings, and what would later become the RZ1 line of A-wings. The RZ1a differs from the RZ1 in that it doesn't feature a hyperdrive in addition to a number of systems that would be implemented on the RZ1.

The idea came from KSE directors attempting to cut costs in order to make the program more appealing to the Imperial Navy, who at the time were looking for an inexpensive fighter that would be tethered to capital ships. This courting attempt would make the Empire take a second look at the A-wing program, but ultimately they settled on the Tie Fighter line.

Only a handful of the RZ1a models were produced, which later fell into the hands of the Rebel Alliance, along with the rest of the A-wing line.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it or not, but blue is listed twice in the color code section. This ship is amazing by the way.
LyfeForse  [author] 12 Aug, 2023 @ 7:15pm 
There shouldn't be any blocks obstructing potential fire lanes if you did a straight swap for the gun positions on the outside wings. Try using the 2 forward gun positions and see what happens
Mr.Wanaskiwin "Navarone" 11 Aug, 2023 @ 4:58pm 
odd. laser cannons seem to be incapable firing from this design. but gatlings work fine.
Mr.Wanaskiwin "Navarone" 11 Aug, 2023 @ 3:57pm 
hm.... i modified one to use heavy lasers from the RE mod and for some odd raisen the laser projectile never makes it further than the ships length.
