[Star Wars] How did Imperial pilots feel about the transition from the ARC-170 to the TIE fighter series?

The ARC-170 is shielded, has a hyperdrive, and is well armed and armored. The TIE is faster and more maneuverable, but the explicit goal of its use is to overwhelm the enemy with numbers, and if it costs the lives of who knows how many pilots, then so be it.

Did the Imperial pilots have any issues with being given less robust ships and being told they were expected to die more frequently than with their old hardware?

"You need shields? you need a hyperdrive to run? Real soldiers of the empire need only their wits, only their speed. The aging Arc-170 was for an age where pilots bought their way into the service. It was corrupt and dark time before we took back our society! 

The Tie-LN rewards skill, bravery and daring. Just like the imperial navy!"
