The TIE/vn space superiority fighter, also known as the TIE silencer, was an angular variant of the TIE line starfighters used by the First Order. A product of Sienar-Jaemus Fleet Systems, the fighter was engineered for speed and handling, though lesser pilots were still often overwhelmed and unable to maintain control of the nimble ship. For armaments, the TIE/vn was armed with laser cannons and missile launchers. Reminiscent in design of the Galactic Empire's TIE/IN interceptor and Darth Vader's TIE Advanced, Kylo Ren used one such ship during the First Order–Resistance war.
