Well, that's a very interesting question.  I know that we see B-Wings in action during The Rise of Skywalker, but we never got a really good look at them.  Is there an updated "Resistance version" of the B-Wing?  Or is that just the classic Rebel B-Wing?  I couldn't tell from the movie.  If there is an updated B-Wing, it was conspicuously absent from the Rebel Starfighter Owners' Workshop Manual, which included virtually every other Rebel and Resistance fighter that ever appears on screen.  And it was also conspicuously absent from The Rise of Skywalker Visual Guide, and also absent from Wookieepedia.  I've seen several beautiful fan-made designs for a Resistance B-Wing.  They are so well done that you might think they are official.  I've even seen some depictions claiming to be the official Resistance B-Wing, but I have yet to see anything official from an official Lucasfilm source.  Some kind of B-Wing certainly appeared in the latest movie, but I until get a little confirmation on what exactly it was, I'm reluctant to try to build it.  Have you seen it depicted in any official sources?  Since we see nearly every single Rebel ship ever built make a cameo at the end of the movie, (including U-Wings, MC75's, and even the Ghost) I'm inclined to believe that what we saw was just the standard Rebel-era B-Wing.  (That would explain why a newly updated version does not appear in so much of the recent official promotional material.)  On the other hand, if there is an official new Resistance B-Wing, from an official source, I'd love to see it.

Agreed!  I only wish we could have seen even more of them in action.
