Ace Squadron, also known as the Aces squadron or the Aces, was a starfighter squadron employed by the Colossus refueling station as a defense force during the age of the New Republic. They were also tasked with the handling of critical shipments. The squadron consisted of the five best pilots—Torra Doza, Hype Fazon, Freya Fenris, Griff Halloran, and Bo Keevil—in the facility. They were also considered to rank among the most talented pilots throughout the galaxy. Aside from their role in station security, the Aces were known to engage in competitive starship racing for leisure.[1][3] After the First Order arrived at the Colossus in order to provide security, races were suspended and all starfighters were grounded. Fazon protested, and was arrested by stormtroopers. He was able to escape captivity with the help of Resistance agents.[11]
When the Resistance agent Kazuda Xiono deliberately sunk the Colossus into the ocean, the Aces scrambled to their stations.[12]
Behind the scenes
- "The Aces are a group of pilots amongst the best in the galaxy...They're all reluctant resistance members. They didn't want this. It's sort of been thrust upon them because of the First Order."
- ―The Aces featurette
Ace Squadron was created and developed for the animated series Star Wars Resistance. The first footage of the squad was released on August 17, 2018.[13] Further details regarding the pilots that formed the squadron were released on September 14, 2018.[2]
