That is such a well done "spoof". Perfect background and lighting. The stormtroopers are killing it.

Except stormtroopers don't pilot Tie Fighters.

They arent piloting it, they are standing next to it just like on the official https://www.starwars.com/databank/tie-fighter middle of the page

Their whole class based hierarchy is really a bummer.

Ah, of course. This is how you can identify this as fake.

Yeah the stormtrooper is clearly fake. I wouldn't discount the Tie Fighter, though...
