Black Eight Squadron (4) |
| The Black Eight Squadron was an Imperial military unit composed of pilots who were highly trained in flying TIE/LN starfighters and TIE/sa bombers for the Imperial Navy. The Sith Lord Darth Vader maintained the squadron under his direct command, and personally supervised the selection of its lead pilot. Captain Juno Eclipse and other ace pilots with exceptional flight records were assigned to Vader's personal squadron. After the Battle of Yavin, Darth Vader reorganized the Black Eight Squadron into a group of convicted pilots led by Nas Ghent, a former ace pilot of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. By 1 ABY, the squadron was headquartered on the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Crucible as a result of the Rebel Alliance's victories in minor space battles. Read more... |
