From the cold, iron grip of tyranny and dictatorship, there arises a new dawn of hope. The New Republic, rising from the ashes of a Galaxy corrupted by evil, provides a beacon of light to the oppressed. The men and women of all species in the New Republic bravely fight for the common good, defending the rights of sentient beings everywhere. From the stalwart troopers on the ground, to the majestic Navy in space, these freedom fighters have come together. But there is one group, the heart of the New Republic, that represents what we all fight for. We are the shield of the New Republic, protecting and escorting our fellows. We are the lightning bolt of Justice, striking out against the Empire without warning, launching our attacks before vanishing again into the depths of space.
We are the pilots of Starfighter Command, who have pledged our lives to the pursuit of freedom for all, willing to lay down our lives in the defence of our cause, and the Galaxy. We fly the best snub-fighters in the Galaxy against the Foes of Liberty.
Our Fighters
The X-wing
The renowned and versatile X-wing fighter is a galaxy-wide symbol of the New Republic, and among its most well-recognized ships. A commitment to versatility allows the X-wing to excel in many roles: assault, escort, superiority, and defense.
The A-Wing
The fast and nimble A-wing interceptor is at the pinnacle of fast fighter technology. Among the fastest craft in the galaxy, it can chase down and decimate enemy fighter squadrons; it is an agile and powerful hunter in skilled hands.
The Y-Wing
The solid and dependable Y-wing bomber is a rugged, efficient starfighter design. An Alliance craft for many years now, the Y-wing has a great and noble history of successes against the enemy. The Y-wing has been a mainstay of the New Republic fleets opposing the Empire.
The B-Wing
The deadly and powerful B-wing bomber is among the most well armed and armoured snub-fighters in the galaxy. Some have rhapsodized about the sight of the B-wing as a harbringer of spinning, gyroscopically stabilised death to any enemy capital ship. In addition, the B-wing has considerable power to fight its way into and out of the target zone, and to destroy what targets it faces in its path.
The Pilots
Starfighter Command values bravery and recklessness in its pilots, and the pilots of the Starfighter Command are considered the elite pilots of the New Republic.
