Red Five/Legends

Red Five was Luke Skywalker's code name during the Battle of Yavin.

When Darth Vader shot down Red Leader, Luke took over command. He and his wingmen, Wedge Antilles and Biggs Darklighter, also known as Red Two and Red Three, started their run through the Death Star trench to destroy it. Then, Vader and his two wingmen also entered the trench, and disabled Wedge's left engine. He was forced to leave the trench and return to Yavin 4. Then, Vader destroyed Luke's last wingman, and his best friend. Luke only managed to blow up the Death Star when Han Solo and Chewbacca in the Millenium Falcon entered and destroyed one of Vader's wingmen. The other went out of control and smashed into Vader, flinging the Sith Lord away. The wingman crashed against the trench wall.
