Read on for the full breakdown of Components for the X-wing (Fighter), Y-wing (Bomber), A-wing (Interceptor), and U-wing (Support) starfighters. Hyperjump over to our companion articles on why the Imperials have better ships by default in Squadrons and a full breakdown of every Component for the Galactic Empire starfighters. The descriptions, values, and total number of Components for the New Republic starfighters is likely to change before Star Wars: Squadrons releases in October. When Squadrons launches, you can play it on PC, PlayStation 4 (with VR for both platforms) or Xbox One, and we reckon it’ll be playable when the next-gen Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 launch, too. The text, descriptions, and values are all transcribed directly from a preview build of Squadrons.
