Crimson Leader

Crimson Leader is an Imperial Hero Ship that appears in Star Wars Starfighter: Dandelion Squadron added as part of the first Starfighter Update.

Overview
As the leader of Crimson Squadron, Crimson Leader often led the specialized TIE Interceptors that escorted Emperor Palpatine's personal shuttle when in use.

A difference between these TIE Interceptors and regular ones is that the Royal Guard versions have additional flaps on the wings' curves which were installed under supervision of Sith Lord Darth Vader.

Gameplay
While playing very similar to the TIE Interceptor, Crimson Leader's specialized TIE Interceptor is faster than regular TIE Interceptors. Since Crimson Leader is a Hero Ship, he also has stronger shields and more health than regular Starfighters and includes two abilities:
 * Enhanced Proton Torpedo - Fires a proton torpedo; 50% damage
 * Enhanced Shielding - Overcharge the shields for a short duration
