Well… because the Empire didn’t care if pilots survived. Seriously. No shields. No eject seats. No hyperdrives. They were flying coffins. But that’s the point.
TIE Fighters were cheap, fast, and easy to replace. The Empire didn’t need them to survive—just to overwhelm. And if a few thousand pilots blew up? Good. It scared the rest into obedience.
TIE Fighters weren’t built to protect anyone. They were built to remind everyone who’s in charge. Pretty messed up, huh?
