Emblem of Specter Squadron as stated in Legends

Specter Squadron was mentioned in the 2020 canon video game Star Wars: Squadrons, where it was included in the name of a cosmetic helmet customization labelled "Specter Squadron Helmet,"[1] as part of a post-launch add-on in 2021.[2]

Specter Squadron was first mentioned in Legends, in the 1995 Star Wars Customizable Card Game on the "Dutch" card, with information concerning the squadron and helmet emblem. It states that the black shape with the yellow eye emerging from a gray cloud shape is the emblem of Specter Squadron.[3] In Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, this emblem is visible on the helmets of Jon "Dutch" Vander and Biggs Darklighter during the Battle of Yavin.[4] In Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back, the same emblem is visible on Derek "Hobbie" Klivian's helmet.[5] In Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, the emblem is visible on Grizz Frix's helmet.[6] Star Wars: Squadrons also depicts the emblem on Jek Tono Porkins' helmet.[1]
