Blade Squadron

"Blade Squadron.... start your attack run!"

- Adon Fox, during the Battle of Endor

Blade Squadron was a B-wing starfighter squadron that served with the Rebel Alliance and later the New Republic during the Galactic Civil War. The squadron fought during the Battle of Endor, where they single-handedly destroyed the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Devastator. The squadron's patch, a B-wing over a lightning bolt, was captioned with the words "strike as lightning" in Aurebesh.

Behind the scenes
A group of B-wing starfighters first appeared in the 1983 film Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi. It wasn't until the 2014 short story Blade Squadron that they were identified as Blade Squadron.
