Image and description of Poe Dameron's new X-Wing revealed for Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Empire magazine keeps rolling out some amazing content for Star Wars: The Last Jedi that will be featured in their October issue. The newest released image is of Poe Dameron's new X-Wing which is codenamed "Black One". This new Star fighter is retrofitted with additional rocket thruster for an added boost.

"The X-Wing (an Incom-FreiTek T-70, to be precise) has, according to Rian Johnson, been specially modified by Resistance engineers, with a temporary accelerator pod affixed to the aft section. According to The Last Jedi director, the pod, when primed, increases Dameron's speed, allowing him to outrun First Order cannon emplacements. It's just a temporary boost and will burn out quickly but it's enough to get beyond the barrage of turbo laser fire from First Order Star Destroyers such as the one depicted in the image."

Star Wars: The Last Jedi will be in theaters on December 15, 2017.
