So, which is the better fighter- the X-Wing or the Colonial Viper?

Which Viper?? New series or original??
IMHO, The Xwing beats out the Viper in weaponry and speed, but the viper may have the edge in a dogfight..

Pardon me, boys, I certainly don't mean to step on any toes here, but how can we discuss the relative merits of non existant, fantasy, make believe, space fighters?

Sounds reasonable, fly. I wouldn't have even been in this thread, except I saw the title of it, but did not see that it was under a Sci-Fi thread. Just had to pull all your chains!

What's the old saying? "Don't take life too seriously, you won't make it out alive anyway?"...

For the record, I believe the Viper wins in terms of speed, weaponry, and manouverability. However, the fire control system Luke uses beats anything the Viper's got...

Hummm well let's see...I don't know where to start.....This thing not even real...But if were to play Xbox360 or PSP then i would
take a Viper Mk VII you got to love the 12 Reaction Control Thrusters on that thing.
