Description
Perhaps the most numerous military spacecraft in the entire galaxy, the Tesh-wing interceptor drone was designed to replace the larger, more cumbersome, and piloted Rhen-wing starfighter used by the Galactic Empire. A disposable, shieldless spacecraft, the Tesh-wing could be brought into a battle by the thousands, shooting down enemy drones and harassing larger vessels. Indeed, during desperate battles, a commander is encouraged to use their Tesh-wings as impromptu missiles.
The Tesh-wing is simple by design. The design is so cheap and simple that it does not have modern heat dispersal systems, requiring a large set of radiator fins that give the Tesh-wing its name. It has no internal space for cargo or living beings; in fact, it has no life support at all. Its core reactor powers four fore-mounted blasters. These blasters are mounted deep in the Tesh-wing's hull, requiring the craft to maneuver itself to aim. This is not a crippling flaw, as the Tesh-wing's twin pion engines can rapidly propel and maneuver the craft through both vacuum and atmosphere. The robot brain in the Tesh-wing must be controlled by a carrier vessel, typically an Imperial battlestar.
UPDATE: Changed size.

Nice! "Tesh" is the triangular t-letter in the Standard Imperial alphabet, I take it?
How does "modern" heat dispersal systems work? Off the top of my head I can't come up with a hard sci fi way to do without radiators, but I imagine that you have some excellent Bullshit Science-thingy in mind.
Pion engines? Cool! What's powering them, antimatter?
