Wrong, the early model of the X-Wing was the Z-Wing, which was exactly the same thing as the X-Wing for the exception of obviously way worse technology in armement and shielding as well as engine power (due to the fact it been manifactured way earlier), and the Z-Wing had only 2 standard wings. It's the X-Wing which was the first to use those famous split wings which oppened for attack.
Unless my memory is playing tricks against me, the Rebels reworked the old Z-Wings models to create the X-Wing. It soon became the early trademark of the Alliance.
