The successful integration of molecular shielding and advanced weapon systems gave this TIE a hefty price tag, but the ability to single-handedly overwhelm enemy squadrons and even small battle groups.

I designed the TIE Apex around the existing Avenger one I had, using mostly assets from my TIE Kitbash set; as well as a completely new wing configuration. The Apex, for the fanon lure, serves as a prototype Avenger 2.0.
