Rex's BTL-B Y-wing fighter-bomber

A BTL-B Y-wing fighter-bomber was utilized by the Galactic Republic near the end of the Clone Wars. The BTL-B Y-wing starfighter/bomber was aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Tribunal when Order 66 was issued, which caused the clone troopers onboard to turn against former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano. After Tano had freed Clone Commander Rex from his inhibitor chip, the two attempted to escape the Tribunal, which had fallen into a collision course with a moon after Darth Maul, a former prisoner on the starship, destroyed its hyperdrive. Maul stole the shuttle Tano and Rex had intended to take, and the two found the starfighter in the repair bay at the last minute as enemy clones fired on them, effecting a narrow and dangerous escape.

After the Republic was reformed into the Galactic Empire, Rex continued to utilize the Y-wing as he sought to fight back against the new regime. When he met the former clone commandos of the Bad Batch on the junk planet Bracca so that they could use the medical facilities of a wrecked Star Destroyer to remove the Batch's inhibitor chips, Rex landed the Y-wing inside the remains of another vessel. When the Bad Batch arrived, they landed their transport, the Marauder, beside the Y-wing, disembarking to follow Rex to their destination.
