Nath Tensent's squadron
Canon Linked from 24 articles
A squadron of TIE fighter series starfighters was commanded by the TIE fighter pilot Nath Tensent for the Galactic Empire. They ran a criminal enterprise in the Outer Rim until the Empire discovered them, forcing the squadron to defect the Alliance to Restore the Republic in 1 BBY under fears of the Empire's punishment. The squadron flew BTL-A4 Y-wing assault starfighter/bombers in over fifty operations, and eventually attacked the Trenchenovu shipyards between 3 ABY and 4 ABY.
However, the 204th Imperial Fighter Wing ambushed Tensent's squadron, forcing the pilots to abort their bombing run. In their attempt to escape, Tensent's pilots died one by one, until only Tensent and his second, Reeka, remained. With Reeka's astromech droid having been destroyed, Tensent was forced to abandon her and flee with his life, retreating to the Entropian Hive for repairs.
