X-wing, designed for the Empire or Rebellion?
Under History it states that X-wing was originally designed for the Empire? I can't seem to find a source for that. Most of the reference books and source books say the X-wing was secretly designed for the Rebellion.Heartofajedi (talk) 13:36, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
- Incom, the creator, was nationalized by the Empire. The Rebellion helped Incom staff defect with the X-wing plans and prototypes. You see this play out in Empire at War, at the least. UberSoldat93

- I was under the impression from the reference books and sourcebooks I've read that the X-wing was designed before they were nationalized. Star Wars: Incredible Cross-Sections even states that the X-wing was a top-secret project. I can't seem to find a source that specifically states it was designed for the Empire. Seems a bit odd considering the design team was supposedly sympathetic to the Rebellion. You'll note that this first appears on the Wikipedia page from September 4, 2002. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=X-wing_fighter&oldid=195780 Heartofajedi (talk) 19:27, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
Confederation
Does anyone have a source for X-Wings being used by the Confederation? I can't see to find anything in the Legacy books and its the only faction in the infobox that doesn't have a source associated with it. Tarvin Calaan (talk) 21:21, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Going to remove from now until we get a source. Tarvin Calaan (talk) 14:32, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
