Shadow Squadron

Shadow Squadron was a TIE Interceptor squadron stationed aboard HIMS Tyrant during the early days of the Galactic Civil War. It had a feared reputation for its impressive combat performance and veteran roster, nearly all of whom were aces. It was commanded by Danik Kreldin from 2 BBY until 10 ABY, although after Kreldin's transfer to a new station it continued to operate under new leadership.

The Squadron earned favor with Imperial leaders during the Battle of Coruscant when it successfully escorted Imperial Ruling Council members from the besieged Imperial Palace to the safety of the Imperial fleet.
