Sublight drives are the engines that push starships through space. Unlike hyperdrives, sublight drives cannot move a vessel faster than the speed of light. A common model of sublight drive is an ion engine, which propels a craft by hurling ionic particles at extreme speeds in the opposite direction of travel. TIE fighters employ twin ion engines to achieve their remarkable sublight speeds.
亚光速驱动器是推动星际飞船穿越太空的引擎。跟超空间驱动器不同，亚光速驱动器不能使飞船超过光速。一种常见的亚光速驱动器型号是离子引擎，它通过朝反方向喷射极高速离子流来推动飞船前进。TIE战斗机使用双离子引擎实现非凡的亚光速。

衍生宇宙



The most popular model of sublight drive is the basic Hoersch-Kessel ion drive. Internal fusion reactions generate charged particles that are hurled from the rear of the vessel, producing thrust. Additional ion engines employed as lateral thrusters provide maneuverability on larger vessels, though smaller ones use specialized vectrals to redirect thrust, or employ an etheric rudder or similar device.
最常用的亚光速驱动器型号是初级赫尔施-科舍尔离子推进器。内部的聚变反应生成向飞船后方喷射的带电粒子，产生推进力。被用作侧向推进器的附加离子引擎为大型舰船提供机动能力，不过小型飞船使用特制的矢量仪改变推进力方向，或使用以太舵等类似设备。

Ion engine emissions are mildly radioactive, and technicians who work on vital ion engine components often wear protective gear. This radioactive byproduct has led to a common landing protocol: when in an atmosphere, a ship relies on its cleaner repulsorlifts for the majority of its propulsion. Once in orbital space, where repulsorlifts become ineffective, a ship switches to its more powerful sublight drives. In order to leave system, a ship must use its hyperdrive to travel at superluminal velocities.
离子引擎射流有轻微放射性，因此维护关键离子引擎部件的技师常穿防护服。这种放射性副作用促成了一条通行的降落准则：在大气层中时，一艘飞船依靠较为清洁的反重力装置作为主要的推进力来源。一旦进入反重力装置失效的轨道空间，飞船才切换到更强大的亚光速驱动器。为了离开行星系，一艘飞船必须使用超空间驱动器超越光速。

幕后



For the creation of a TIE fighter's distinct wailing engine sound, Sound Designer Ben Burtt combined a sampled elephant scream with the sound of cars traveling at high speeds down a slick road. These were further modified into the familiar screaming sound.
为了制作TIE战斗机独一无二的引擎啸叫声，声音设计师本·伯特结合了采样的大象叫声和在光滑路面上高速行驶的汽车声。这些声音被进一步修改成熟悉的啸叫声。
