Unlike the concussion missile weaponry of its forerunner model, the Z-95 starfighter was equipped with more powerful, recessed torpedo launchers to supplement its laser power. A laser cannon was positioned on each angular wingtip, leading to a wingspan of 18.13 meters. The starfighter's two engine units, a reduction from the Headhunter's original four, were mounted on double wings and required regular maintenance. The cockpit's features included a targeting computer. It had a similar piloting control system as another Incom/Subpro product, the ARC-170 starfighter.

Z-95 starfighters were also stationed at important Republic facilities like Coruscant's Republic military base and Kamino's clone military education complex.

Seeing Ashley Eckstein as Ahsoka Tano? More of Count Dooku’s past? The return to the Clone Wars era art style in general? Via Lucasfilm/Disney We do not yet have confirmation, but I would guess that many of these characters will be voiced by their Clone Wars voice actors (it definitely sounded like Corey Burton voicing Dooku in the trailer). We also have confirmation that Bail Organa, Mace Windu, Count Dooku, Yaddle, and Ponda Baba will be appearing. Janina Gavankar as Pav-ti: Ahsoka Tano’s mother The cast has been confirmed as the following: It’s an interesting decision to focus on two of the Jedi who left the Order for very different reasons, especially since they are part of the same ‘Master’ line (Dooku trained Ahsoka’s great-grandmaster Qui-Gon Jinn). #Star wars clone wars clone fighter series#The trailer also confirms that at least one inquisitor will be appearing in the series as an antagonist hunting down the surviving Jedi from Order 66. The trailer seems to indicate that the episodes will mostly focus on Count Dooku long before the events of the Clone Wars, and Ahsoka Tano both before and after the Clone Wars. ![]()
