"Screen formation" was a formation developed by Wedge Antilles. It allowed starfighters to protect a lightly defended spaceship with a minimum of fighters.

Starfighters would form an intricate "sphere" around the ship. The starfighters would regularly swap position within the screen, forming a weaving pattern that made targeting any one vessel difficult. Screen formation was often used as a distraction before executing a Cracken Twist.
