Question for SW Geeks

[DoubleT]

Hi all

Was just wondering.... Does the X-Wing have hyperdrive.. Or did Luke fly all the way from Hoth to Degobah on regular motors?

The X-Wing wing is very much smaller then Falcon, and its Hyperdrive seems big...

And if the X-Wing only have regular... would that not be a long flight?

[Zane]

Nope, no hyperdrive....probably would be a long flight.

I love Wookieepedia. :-$

EDIT: Even if Master Yoda knows best...

[xwingyoda]

All the rebel ships do have a hyperdrive ;-)

Remember when Ackbar tells the rebels to attack the DSII, all the ships came out of hyperdrive all together (cruisers to small ships like the X-Wing...)

Its fun when you think about it, the older ships like the X-Wing do have it BUT the newer JSF (from ep 2 & 3) need a freaking Booster Ring that is as big as the ship *wacko* Any thoughts there ;-)

*yoda*

Well Yoda... in the timeline of the movies the JSf is older then X-Wing.. Maybe thats why he he

[xwingyoda]

I know, but at the time (before the Empire), the jedi had loads of money and techniology to build cool stuff. When they became rebels and hunted by the Empire, they did not have the same means to do much better ships ;-) (just a quick thought :-P )

[DoubleT]

It might be some thing Empires ofen using time for better weapons then using time to help people..

Don't forget ep 2&3 is earlier then ep 4-5-6 ;) . So nothing strange to me :-) .

To concure with yoda, the X-Wing does have an hyperdrive in ALL the lucasarts games. I think only the TIEs don't have one (beside some special models)

[mutley777]

only the tie advance, defender and of couse vader's tie had hyperdrive. both the assult gun boat and missle boat also had hyperdrive as well.

[DoubleT]

A Boat had Hyperdrive?.. okay they have to plan it very well when they Hyperjump, so they land in water :-P

[captaintau]

Vader's TIE was a TIE Advanced (X1 to be precise).

Yes, the X-Wing had a Hyperdrive.

In terms of money and its bearing on available technology - technology moves on. Look at the PC you could have bought for

+ ties use solar power. X wings need some kind of fuel.

[Lord Thrawn]

Damn, looks like I missed out on this one. I would have been able to help, too (*glances at SW Nerd title*).

I'll just say, yes the X-Wing has a hyperdrive.
