The A-Wing will make a comeback in Star Wars: Episode 8

I guess the Resistance didn't forget that they had ships other than X-Wings

Being royalty sure has its perks. Like not having to sign an NDA for instance. Prince Harry and Prince William paid a visit to the set of Star Wars: Episode 8 recently, and engaged in their own Lightsaber duel. But one juicy nugget seemed to slip through the cracks. The A-Wing is confirmed to be in Star Wars: Episode 8, courtesy of a few images taken of the royalty during their visit. 

Check them out.

Personally, I thought it was kind of odd that the Resistance had only retained one kind of Starfighter in the last 30 years. But I guess you've got to spread out the new technology over the course of several movies instead of all at once.
