Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar #16 [2015]

Another fairly non-descriptive build at the micro scale but I feel confident that this is an A-wing. Not as well-known as either the X-wing or Y-wing but another variant of ship used by the Revel Alliance.

The RZ-1 A-wing interceptor was a wedge-shaped starfighter manufactured by Kuat Systems Engineering which took design inspiration from the Republic starfighters of the Clone Wars. They were used by the Rebel Alliance, and saw action during the Age of the Empire and the Galactic Civil War. [SOURCE]

Side note – in the first Star Wars game for PC it was easier to destroy the Death Star with the A-wing than it was the X-wing. The smaller, faster and more mobile craft made for a better attack vehicle. The Rebels should have done their homework in the simulator before sending the wrong ship out for the job.
