Star Wars: The best ships in the sequels
By Nik Edlund
Kylo Ren’s TIE Silencer
Kylo Ren’s TIE Silencer is a badass looking vessel that is extremely intimidating in appearance. Like most of the sequel trilogy, it tacks an original design and is based largely off of the TIE Interceptor we see in Return of the Jedi.
This ship does have some different characteristics though. First of all, it is painted in all black. This is to clearly show its evil intentions and the dark nature of the twisted man who is piloting it. It also features a red cockpit to up that scare factor, and its panels are much longer and come to sharper points than the original TIE Interceptor.
As we see in The Last Jedi, this ship can pack quite a punch. Kylo rage pilots it after being humiliated by Snoke, and destroys many Resistance fighters before stopping short of blowing his mother’s cruiser into kingdom come. Not only does this ship pack a punch, but it is extremely maneuverable and Ren masterfully pilots it like an heir of Han Solo and Anakin Skywalker should.
