| rdfs:comment | - The Aggressive ReConnaissance-170 starfighter, also known as the ARC-170 starfighter and Advanced Recon fighter was a heavy starfighter/bomber that saw widespread use by the Republic Navy during in the later days of the Clone Wars. It was an ancestor of the T-65 X-wing starfighter, which would be mainly used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic. It was also used by the Galactic Empire and later the New Galactic Empire.
- Heavily armed and more than capable of surviving and succeeding in battle operations, the ARC-170 (Aggressive ReConnaissance) fighter also functions as a lone recon scout, with extended consumables for five standard days of remote operations. It is one of the few starfighters of this era to carry an onboard class 1.5 hyperdrive engine, with a range of 5,000 light years. The narrow spaceframe flanked by large engines is common in Incom/Subpro designs, and can be seen in PTB-626, NTB-630 and Z-95 starfighter models.
- The ARC-170, or Aggressive ReConnaissance Starfighter, is a quest reward granted for completing Queen Kylantha's Clone Relics quest: To the Queen's Aid. The ship may be piloted by members of any faction with the correct certification. It is the only non-POB ship to feature two turrets for gunners to use. The ship is nimble and yet equipped to carry large amounts of firepower. When fully crewed, the ARC-170 is very dangerous in close dogfights, due to its two rear-facing cannons.

| abstract | - Heavily armed and more than capable of surviving and succeeding in battle operations, the ARC-170 (Aggressive ReConnaissance) fighter also functions as a lone recon scout, with extended consumables for five standard days of remote operations. It is one of the few starfighters of this era to carry an onboard class 1.5 hyperdrive engine, with a range of 5,000 light years. The ship's heavy nose contains sensitive long-range sensors for its snoop missions. Its extendable s-foils radiate heat and serve as a conduit to deflector shield energy. They also help stabilize atmospheric flight, making the ARC-170 an effective aerial fighter as well as a space superiority vessel The narrow spaceframe flanked by large engines is common in Incom/Subpro designs, and can be seen in PTB-626, NTB-630 and Z-95 starfighter models. The ARC-170 fighter is a bulky, aggressive ship covered with weapons. Three personnel operate this combat craft, with a pilot handling the flight maneuvers, a copilot operating the laser cannons mounted on the ship's wide wings, and a tailgunner operating the dorsal rear-facing cannon. The fighter also carries an astromech droid for onboard repairs.

- The ARC-170, or Aggressive ReConnaissance Starfighter, is a quest reward granted for completing Queen Kylantha's Clone Relics quest: To the Queen's Aid. The ship may be piloted by members of any faction with the correct certification. It is the only non-POB ship to feature two turrets for gunners to use. The ship is nimble and yet equipped to carry large amounts of firepower. When fully crewed, the ARC-170 is very dangerous in close dogfights, due to its two rear-facing cannons. Pilot Opinion: A highly maneuverable ship (and actually faster in terms of top speed than the Eta-2 Actis Interceptor upon testing with the same engine in both ships), the ARC-170's weapon spread can cause some to feel its aim is more difficult to line up shots, but as conclusive tests have proven, the damage done by a weapon is judged by shooting within the targeting reticule. DO NOT try to line up the lasers to aim, as this method is only helpful on ships that have a close weapon spread in the center of the ships body. The turret bugs that currently exist do hinder is performance somewhat(it has been found that turning off the Gimbal correction can help with this bug), but it is still a very dangerous ship to go head to head against if the pilot knows what they are doing. As of Game Update 9 the hitbox on the ARC-170 has been corrected and it now stretches over almost the entire wingspan. Ultimately however a full crew of 3 is necessary to make full use of this ship. Because 2 of the 3 projectile weapons are completely unusable to the main pilot (because both are tail guns), this ship isn't exactly for loners, then again this will result in more space in mass and can easily make up for the missing gunners. Second Pilot's Opinion: I have flown the ARC-170 for more than a year now in PvP and not once have I found myself lacking without a Gunner and know others who feel the same way. Except that point the other opinion is correct, highly manuverable, highly quirked but once you learn it's foibles it's an incredibly fun and mean ship, even with only a pilot.
