The official Star Wars Databank has been updated with an entry for Ren’s new ride from The Last Jedi with the following text (click the supplied image for a larger view):
TIE SILENCER
Reminiscent in design of the Empire’s TIE interceptor and Darth Vader’s TIE advanced, Kylo Ren’s TIE silencer is an angular fighter equipped with laser cannons and missile launchers. Ren is an expert pilot — thanks to skills passed down from his father — which he puts to use in exploiting his ship’s speed and ferocity. There is no other First Order craft like the TIE silencer, and it is an effective tool in Ren’s mission to destroy the Resistance.
In this installment of The Star Wars Show, we have the exclusive first look at Kylo Ren’s new ship in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, go inside the Star Wars-themed lands coming to Disney Parks called Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, talk with the Star Wars: The Last Jedi cast at D23, and much more!
