Aggressor Wing was a wing of New Republic BTL-S3 Y-wing starfighters that was commanded by Colonel Horton Salm during the period after the Battle of Endor. Other members included Telsij Cayr and Kin Kian.
History[]
Aggressor Wing was given the task of delaying the evacuation of Brentaal IV, in order to prevent the fleeing Imperials from looting the planet prior to the Battle of Brentaal. Salm was promoted to General following this action.
The Aggressors were later instrumental in assisting Commando Team One in liberating Sate Pestage from Ciutric IV, then returning to the theater of battle to save Rogue Squadron from Imperial attacks.
