E-Wing starfighters
Ahsoka marks the live-action debut of the iconic E-Wing starfighter. As Gizmodo’s James Whitbrook points out, this ship represented something entirely different for the New Republic. “While modern continuity presented us the idea that the way a victorious Rebel Alliance, now the New Republic, could improve on the legendary X-Wing starfighter was by simply building a newer X-Wing, the E-Wing’s entry into the Star Wars alphabet-fighter legacy imagined what they would do in creating something new,” Whitbrook wrote.
Now that ship is fully realized in live-action, and in a fantastic scene, at that.
