Comments: "Uglies" or "chop-jobs" are hybrid starfighters built from whatever spare parts their manufacturer can find. The TIE-X is one of the better Uglies, combining many of the advantages of the TIE Interceptor and X-Wing. It has a TIE Interceptor's ball cockpit with an X-Wing's distinctive S-Foils, and is a favourite among Twi'lek pilots, who refer to it as the Chir'daki or "deathseed". It is built with a B-Wing-like structure and its maneuverability is especially pronounced when rolling.
