Jens (pilot)

Jens was a male pilot who flew a Z-95 Headhunter within Foxfire Squadron, a unit attached to the Ividal Sector Forces. During the Clone Wars, Jens flew with Foxfire Squadron during an attack against the forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems over the world Uvadala, and during the battle Jens flew as the wingmate of fellow pilot Jorn Kurlish. The Z-95s of Foxfire Squadron were deployed as bombers to fire plasma warheads on the Separatists and during their first bombing run, the blast visor of Jens' helmet was polarized by the flash from the detonation of the plasma warheads. While he tried to remove the helmet, Jens inadvertently flew his starfighter into the deck of a nearby starships. As a result of the difficulties faced by Jens and fellow pilot Rafana with flying during the flashes caused by firing the plasma warheads, during the later stages of the batte over Uvadala the pilots of Foxfire Squadrons were provided with blast shields on their helmets to protect their eyes during the explosions.
