Research

Admiral Zaarin conducted TIE starfighter research, among other types, aboard XQ6 Platform Research during the Galactic Civil War. TIE Defender prototypes began their journey to the Emperor from Platform Research during the "Arms Race" prior to Admiral Zaarin's treason against the Galactic Empire around 3 ABY. Rebel Alliance forces assaulted Platform Research in attempt to thwart TIE Defender production; to no avail, halted by Imperial TIE Avengers.
