Today...
year 2005 was the release of some Starfighter models from AMT/Ertl and Germany: Anakin’s Jedi Starfighter and Obi-Wan’s Jedi Starfighter that they use in the battle over Coruscant and the ARC-170 Starfighter used by the clones protecting the Jedi.

ARC-170 Starfighter is a bulky, aggressive ship covered with weapons. Three clone trooper pilots operate this advanced combat craft, with a pilot handling the flight maneuvers, a copilot operating the laser cannons mounted on the ship's wide wings, and a tailgunner operating the dorsal rear-facing cannon. The fighter also carry an astromech droid for onboard repairs.

Jedi Starfighter is a small one-man vessel. It develops to a more compact model during the Clone Wars with a full-size astromech rested within a spring-loaded socket on the port wing. The craft's wingtips could fold open, revealing hexagonal panels when the ship entered combat mode.

How the design of the Starfighters connect with the Star Destroyer can you find out in the video Wedgie ‘Em Out.
