The Galactic Empire launched an assault against the Cardooine Rebel base during the Galactic Civil War. The strike force was stymied when the technician Tendaar Bel scrambled the Imperial IFF codes, allowing the Soaring Dactillions, flying prototype A-wings, to route the force. All but two of the Rebel pilots were killed in the assault, although the base was spared. The squadron proved that the A-wing featured superb qualities. Soon after, Bel and pilot Zal Artha were assigned to Alliance Special Operations.
