As much as I love the X-Wing series and the many ships and space stations they introduced, I wouldn't trust their technical information. One example is how the Interdictor cruiser is supposed to hold several squadrons of fighters although its dorsal loading bay is not even big enough for a single one. Or how an X-Wing can carry not only torpedoes, but also missiles, rockets, ion pulses, and whatever the Heck else.

A better approach would've been to have it carry only proton torpedoes, but different kinds of proton torpedoes, with various types of warheads, propulsion, electronics, etc. Likewise with A-Wings and Z-95s. Instead of two types of concussion missiles as well as "ion pulses", "mag pulses", etc., just create different configurations of the concussion missile, with those effects and stats.

Would've been far more realistic. An F-16 can carry many different types of loadouts - an X-Wing, with its internal launchers, cannot.

TIE Bombers, on the other hand, supposedly can carry a wide range of warheads, from concussion missiles to torpedoes to thermal detonators for cluster-bombing ground targets (hint to developers !).

You can't put a 50 cal. bullet into an 11 millimeter handgun can you?
