The main interceptor of the Resistance, the RZ-2 A-Wing is the natural evolution of its predecessor used by the Rebel Alliance. With several field-tested refinements integrated into its design, the new generation of A-wing fighters boasts incredible maneuverability to go along with blazingly fast speed, which makes mastering this craft a challenge worthy of the greatest aces.

The RZ-2 A-wing’s three defense dice and ability to evade incoming attacks make it a hard target to hit, and its redesigned swivel mounts deter pursuers by allowing pilots to target enemies behind them. One of the ship's many improvements over earlier models, these built-in Refined Gyrostabilizers provide the RZ-2 with a turret arc that can rotate exclusively between the front and back of the ship. This gives it some much needed flexibility in where it fires, but intrepid pilots must carefully choose where to direct their fire or miss out on opportunities elsewhere.
