Very cool! I always liked this design minus the roof cannon. That never made sense to me.

I never understood that objection when the TIE Fighter exists.

I would like to see that canon mounted in front of the cockpit, above the nosecone, sort of like the guns on the P-38 Lightning. That way it should be lower than the pilot's eye line and not blind them.

I've got this model saved, I really dig that.

More a matter of personal preference and aesthetics over real logic and reasoning.

When it was introduced in Ahsoka, the top cannon was gone. I assume they used artistic license and removed it from the EU E-Wing.

Yeah, that's fine. Just that the "blinding the pilot" reasoning makes zero sense when so many ships have cannons right in front of the pilot and nobody says a thing about them. The cannons on the Millennium Falcon are right in front of the gunner, the TIE Fighter's cannons are right below him, the Y-wing's are right in front... All of them are approximately the same distance from pilot eyes as the E-wing's cannon, but nobody complains about them. Just be honest and say you don't like the aesthetic choice and drop the dumb "It'll blind the pilot" nonsense.

Who are you? That’s right, nobody! If I, or anyone else for that matter, draws the conclusion that “X” is the reason why I or they don’t like it, that should be good enough no mater what you or anyone else thinks.
