Red Five was the callsign of the fifth member of Red Squadron. There were a number of starfighter squadrons with this name, and several beings went by the name Red Five.

HistoryEdit

An unknown clone trooper pilot went by the callsign of Red Five. He was killed during a mission to Tythe in 19 BBY.

Anakin Skywalker flew as Red Five during a number of battles in the Clone Wars, including the Battle of Coruscant.

Red Five was later, by coincidence or a strange play of fate, Luke Skywalker's callsign in the Battle of Yavin, during the Galactic Civil War.

Chewbacca was assigned the call sign during a mission to Kamino.

In 4 ABY, Grizz Frix flew as Red Five during the Battle of Endor.

Behind the scenesEdit

Red5 was used as a cheat code in Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II which granted the player all weapons and full ammunition.

Red Five is also the origin of the parodical character Pink Five.
