Squadron

A squadron was an arial or space unit, generally composed of starfighters such as the T-65 X-wing starfighter or a special group of larger warships such as the Imperial Death Squadron. Squadrons would be given names and generally had a Wing Commander or leader that was in charge of the pilots. In cases of larger groups it would be led by an Admiral or Captain. The Death Squadron was personally led by Darth Vader, the Dark Lord of the Sith.
