The Incom T-65XJ X-Wing starfighter was a starfighter used by the New Republic and the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances.
The XJ series boasted increased shield capacity, better maneuverability, and a higher sublight acceleration. The starfighter's weapons carried an increased charge and better targeting computers, making the craft a formidable enemy of the foes of the New Republic. Additionally, a third proton torpedo launcher was added to up the fighter's payload to 9 torpedoes total.
The XJ used primarily R7 astromech droids because they could hold up to 15 sets of hyperspace vector coordinates verses that of the standard R2 units 10 sets of coordinates. Although R2 units were used if an R7 astromech droid was not available.
The XJ model of Incom's incredibly successful X-Wing series was one of the more recent versions of the venerable starfighter. When the war against the Yuuzhan Vong started, these models were rarely seen outside of the New Jedi Order and Star Destroyer squadrons.
