  • A starfighter is any fighter craft vehicle used in space. Notable models include the TIE fighter, the X-wing, and the ARC-170 starfighter.
  • The Starfighter was a space fighter built by G.I. Joe using stolen Cobra technology. Completed in 1993, the Starfighter was intended to be piloted by Sci-Fi. However, budgetary and mechanical issues caused the project to be shut down in 1994 when G.I. Joe was disbanded. In 2015 the Starfighter was finally launched, and remains in service.
  • A starfighter was a small starship that often assisted larger ships in space battles. The Piece of Junk starfighter was one such example.
  • The Starfighter (being MC-S85 Star Explorer its model name) is a new flying tower. It just stays in the spot you placed it (hovering, also note that other flying towers can't be put in the same spot, but ground towers can, temples excluded), and starts shooting 2 red lasers (like Laser Vision) every 0.15 seconds that pops 1 bloon for 1 layer from its beam cannon. Can pop camo and frozen bloons. Costs $3000. It has a range of 230px. Unlike other towers, it has a 25 HP shield. When the shield is destroyed, it takes 3 minutes to get back.
  • Starfighters are small, personal spacecraft used in space dogfights, patrol, strike and escort operations. They are classified as , and . Capital ships such as carriers contain a complement of fighters, as most figters lack a jump drive. Among the Kilrathi, starfighters perform the main offensive and tactical effort as well as fighter-bombers. Comparing Confed and Kilrathi fighters, it has been obvious that human fighters are outnumbered, with the human pilot experience and advanced technology giving them a slight edge.
  • The appearance and use of fictional starfighters is often modeled on fighter aircraft, with little regard for the actual physics of spaceflight. Exceptions include the Gunstar from The Last Starfighter, the Viper from the reimagined series of Battlestar Galactica, and the Starfury from Babylon 5, which are capable of multidirectional orientation. In some cases, the Starfighters are used as atmospheric fighters as well, explaining their looks.
  • Starfighters were small spacecraft designed to fight stars. Why you would do this is unknown. Most looked like flying trash bins. Starfighter pilots were known for their huge egos, with many trying to destroy planets in their puny machines. None of them ever succeeded, and their displeased masters often dealt with them very seriously. There were many types of starfighters in the galaxy, such as:

In some cases, the Starfighters are used as atmospheric fighters as well, explaining their looks. Starfighters are popular as the subjects of flight simulator-like space combat video games, such as the "Wing Commander" and "X-Wing" series. This connection was made explicitly as early as the 1984 film The Last Starfighter in which a video game on Earth is used as a recruiting device for an alien civilization whose starfighters require the same skills as the video game. In the Star Wars universe, a Starfighter is a blanket term for all small combat space craft, regardless of shields, hyperspace capability, weaponry (unless it carries none), armor, maneuverability and crew. "Snubfighter" (a term first used in Star Wars), though no concise definition has been given, often refers to a fighter carrying shielding, secondary weapons systems such as Proton Torpedoes or concussion missiles, and being hyperspace capable. Starfighters sometimes bear mission designations similar to modern fighter aircraft, such as "strike fighter" and "space superiority fighter".
