This will allow you to maintain most systems at maximum recharge and still retain a high speed." ― Imperial briefing officer — Listen ( file info) [2] There is also some discrepancy among sources as to the length of the TIE Defender. The TIE Defender's Databank entry and The Official Starships & Vehicles Collection 67 describe it as 9.2 meters long; [6] [20] however, Star Wars: TIE Fighter had originally given the length as 10 meters, [2] a length which was repeated in The Official Star Wars Fact File 73 and The Official Star Wars Fact File Part 53. [15] [14] Furthermore, both The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels and More Starships! list the length as 6.6 meters. [7] [9] The 9.2 meter length also appears in Coruscant and the Core Worlds as the length of the TIE Advanced x7 which served as the prototype for the TIE Defender. [30]

The TIE Defender was created for the 1994 LucasArts video game Star Wars: TIE Fighter in which the craft was flyable by the player. [2] Although this craft was initially left out of the multiplayer Star Wars: X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter ( 1997) for the sake of balance, the game data files still have an entry for the TIE Defender in the craft library, with the description field reading "Advanced space superiority fighter. This craft is too powerful to be put in this simulation. Dream on, fanboy!" [48] The TIE Defender returned in 1999's Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance, making an appearance in the single-player campaign and available as a player craft in the multiplayer mode.

Three cargo ferries from group Sela were sent to Zaarin's research facility to collect the prototypes, loaded into containers for transport. The Rebel Alliance attempted to disrupt the loading operation but their raiding party was defeated by Imperial fighters.
