The TIE lander was a triple-hulled TIE model with bent solar collector wings that could transport and deploy an entire company of Imperial stormtroopers. Such ships were notably used at the temporary Imperial garrison base of Mos Eisley, Tatooine, during the search for the Rebel droids C-3PO and R2-D2.[2]
