You don't need to see any identification.
Lightly armed. No Proton Torpedo Launcher.

X-Wings and A-Wings generally work in tandem, usually within the same squad. No competition there at all. Using its impressive straight-line acceleration and advanced jamming package, A-wings were able to hit targets before they could respond, and then flee before any defense could be organized. A group of X-wings would approach an Imperial convoy, hiding A-wings in their drive exhaust. The X-wings would then pull away, diverting attention away from the speedy A-wings, which would launch HM-6 concussion missiles against the convoy and pull away.
As I said before, heavily armed.
Armament:
Borstel RG-9 laser cannons (2) per wing capable of 60 degree turns, in the Class II version these are capable of 360 turns
Dymek HM-6 concussion missile launchers (2) with 6 missiles each (standard load) Each concussion missile featured an armor-piercing tip that penetrated a target's hull before igniting the missile's compact energy pack. The impact would trigger the missile's warhead, which like proton torpedoes, was either nuclear or thermonuclear in nature. A concussion missile did not necessarily need to impact in order to detonate, however, some could be set to explode at a preset proximity to the target. In atmosphere, the missile created a deafening sonic boom and caused major damage to the surrounding area.
Countermeasures:
Miradyne 4x-Phantom jammer
Chaff and flare launcher

But does an A-wing have the ability to destroy the Death Star?
Red 6 Standing By
Sure, why not? I mean, one destroyed Darth's flagship, the "super" Star Destroyer, in Ep.VI...something else should be considered, though. Are we talking about the EpIV Death Star ("That's no moon.."), or the Ep.VI one, that was "fully operational", despite it's looking like a partially eaten piece of fruit?
Quite the conundrum...
You don't need to see any identification.
Which one? Death Star # 1 probably not due to the angle of the exhaust port and the inability of the longer missle to make that 90 degree turn in that tight space. Death Star # 2, yes.
