An exceptional unit operated as part of the Galactic Empire's Imperial Starfighter Corps throughout the Galactic Civil War, a conflict spanning the years 0 BBY to 5 ABY. This squadron flew TIE/ag "Aggressor" Starfighters and was especially engaged in a sector of the galaxy experiencing heavy Rebel Alliance presence, where it successfully eliminated multiple Alliance squadrons. This elite group proved to be a major threat.
Due to these defeats, Alliance Military's Sector Command assigned a specialized team to hunt down and neutralize the squadron's pilots.
The initial reference to this elite unit appeared in the 2020 Starships and Speeders roleplaying game supplement, specifically as a potential adventure hook within Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars Roleplaying system. This entry presumes the resolution of that particular scenario.
