A pair of X-wing fighters perform the Corellian Slip
The Corellian Slip was a type of starfighter combat maneuver. When an enemy fighter trailed a friendly craft, another friendly ship would fly directly at both friend and foe, veering off at the last moment to destroy the attacking enemy ship. The tactic was named after the Corellian smugglers who supposedly invented it.
Wedge Antilles used a Corellian Slip maneuver to save Luke Skywalker's T-65 X-wing starfighter from a pursuing TIE/LN starfighter, flown by DS-61-4, at the Battle of Yavin.
