Gray Squadron was a Rebel starfighter squadron that flew B-wing and Y-wing starfighters marked with gray striping to identify their squad affiliation. The Y-wing starfighters in the squadron were flown in three flights of four. Led by Colonel Horton Salm, the Gray Squadron was created shortly after the Battle of Hoth. It was vital in the attack on the Imperial Academy of Carida, and in the battles of Kothlis and Endor. During the Battle of Endor, the squadron skimmed the Death Star's surface to provide defensive cover, as well as destroying Capital ships between Millennium Falcon and the Death Star.

Behind the scenesEdit
An unidentified Y-wing pilot in a Gray Squadron uniform was seen at the pre-mission briefing.
Some of the Rebel pilot's images showing the characters dressed in B-wing uniforms and helmets were used by Decipher for the Death Star II Limited expansion of the Star Wars Customizable Card Game, but were incorrectly labeling as Y-wing pilots in the game.
