- "My brothers died on a rebel raid with the 181st that never should have happened. I blame the Imperial senator who pushed for that doomed mission just as much as I blame the rebels who fired the torpedoes."
- ―Havina Vonreg
Sometime before the Dissolution of the Imperial Senate[2] in 0 BBY,[3] a member of the senatorial body pushed for the 181st Imperial Fighter Wing of the Galactic Empire's Imperial Starfighter Corps, to launch a raid on the Alliance to Restore the Republic. The mission ended up disastrous, with the unit losing at least two men,[2] including Hedrian, the younger brother of fellow TIE fighter pilot Havina Vonreg. Although not killed by Alliance torpedos, Hedrian made it back to his hangar and passed away.[4]
Vonreg held the senator accountable for her siblings' deaths just as much she did the rebels[2] and alluded the raid to Shen.[4] Around 4 ABY,[5] the pilot mentioned the mission to another member of her own starfighter unit, Titan Squadron.[2]
Behind the scenes[]
The raid was first mentioned in the 2020 video game Star Wars: Squadrons, developed by Motive Studios.[2]
