The Incom Corporation is so famous for designing the T-65B X-wing, that people often forget that it was nationalised by the Empire. The I-7 Howlrunner is the first design from Incom since it was reorganisaed by the Empire, and while the company's legacy as a "Rebel" company hasn't endeared the Howlrunner to many Imperial pilots, those who view the design with an unbiased eye will admit that it is a quality product.
The Howlrunner is streamlined and is as effective in atmosphere as vacuum. It can be launched either from orbit or a ground base and can pursue enemies without any loss of performance. Named after a wild carnivorous predator native to the heat-baked sands of Kamar, the Howlrunner is famed for its tenacity and ferocity; Incom integrated these qualities into the fighter.
Few sorties have been fought between the I-7 and its predecessor, the X-Wing, but military analysts on both sides are keen to see just how the current Incom designs stack up against Incom's original X-Wing.
