"Little Stinger" ("Little Stinger")

Capsule from report on the "Little Stinger" to Emperor Palpatine:

The designers feel that the hull could be weakened a bit with the downsizing of the fuselage; it will take an ace pilot to hit these little ships.  With the downsizing there is no room for extra baggage, the pilot is on his own in a survival situation.  The speed is the same as the TIE/ln so it can keep up with those pesky Rebel fighters.  The idea behind this design is that with a smaller size the Empire will be able to fit more fighters onto their impressive Star Destroyers.  The weapons are not much because these ships will use swarm like tactics.
