oh yeah biotches first comment. the banshee is good but the tie is just faster, have better maneuvering and have more fire power. The tie gets this one

Tie wins, hands down. Tie fighters, while mostly used for deep space, are also rated highly for atmospheric combat, especialy the Tie Intercepter. the homing rockets would tear easily through the banshee’s shield, since they’re designed to tear through capital ship shields.

The TIE wins due to superb fire power. But, just as a side note: TIEs are built cheap so that the Empire can have mass quantities of them. The life support systems are weak and short lived and there is no hyperdrive installed (save Vader’s Advance TIE fighter and a few others… The “no hyperdrive” was to give the fighters more caution when fighting, knowing that they could not back out…it also cut back on expenses!

TIE wins. I don’t see no troopers feat sticking out the back, ha!

the TIE fighter has a lot less armor than a Banshee but it makes it up for speed. but the banshee is fast and strong, sure a rocket, laser, turret on a warthog but u cant take out a banshee with a magnum, a TIE fighter can be destroyed in a couple laser shots, plus wouldnt plasma fire from the banshee melt the hull, thus suffocating the pilot?

m cant take the banshee with a magnum? ever play a little game called halo combat evolved then again the magnum is like a portable deathstar

dude i did play the first halo! im talking about halo 2 and halo 3 where the banshee does have speed boost! oh and only n00bs use the magnum!

neither win they just stay in there hangars coz noones flyin them… then chuck norris jumps in and breaks them then flys away… coz everyone noes chuck norris can fly

Banshee cause it has missiles

this would never happen because fighters are made for space battles banshees are made for atmospereic dog fights thats why when you look up in the air and you see banshees and hornets battleing in the sky and never in space. The banshee would win though. A banshee has better fire power plus a built in fuel rod cannon that emmits radiation and in halo 3 tracks you for a short time.

“And you do know that starwars tech totally outclasses halos?”

sorry about the typo error.

sry because its faster ect…

I am going to go get pop-corn ready, prop up a nice pillow, and wait for the doom that is L-W to come upon this thread…….going to be quite a show.

“@PF
I can’t wait either… er… And before he does come though, I’d like to say that the TIE’s plating is actually made of a titainium alloy… Not durasteel.
‘wipes sweat from brow’”

Good thing you caught that mistake before….he who must not be named, found out. Well, they say patience is key, so I guess I must wait…..

i saw it but didnt say anything

For all you dumbasses who think TIE fighters have missles, they don’t. They only have 2 LS-1 light laser cannons

I’ll make this quick and fast: Tie fighters fire concentrated energy which is known as blaster bolts, this is originates from Plasma, but it is a much higher concentrated level, and is also “excited” by components in the firing mechanism which makes it much more deadly than the weaponry that is fired off from all Covenant weaponry including fuel rod cannons, Tie fighters are built to basically absorb all that and basically it could just fire off a few shots to destroy the Banshee, and they are much faster and maneuverable.
