Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
By 4 ABY, shortly before the Battle of Endor, Sienar Fleet Systems began manufacturing TIE/D Defenders for the Galactic Empire. Onyx 1 was one such TIE/D Defender produced during that time, with the starfighter's design intended to emulate advantages of starfighters fighting for the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Onyx 1's crew consisted of a TIE pilot, and the Defender was armed with laser cannons, ion cannons, and missile launchers.
Around the time of the Battle of Endor, Onyx 1 was part of the Imperial Navy's Onyx Squadron. It was operated by Colonel Jendon, a senior test pilot who was ordered to shake down the first TIE/D Defenders assigned to Imperial fleet operations.
