Republic Starfighter Corps/Legends

The Republic Starfighter Corps were the elite pilots of the Republic Military. After the New Sith Wars, the Starfighter Corps was scaled down by the Ruusan Reformation and made part of the Judicial Forces.

Mandalorian Wars/Jedi Civil War
Squadrons were the highest organizational unit of the Corps during this period, with each squadron commanded by a Commander. Because of the lack of any larger units, there was a higher turnover rate of this position than in other fields, with many commanders choosing to take assignments on larger ships in order to receive promotions.
