Black Malice Squadron is one of four squadrons operating from the BAC Shadow, a squad mainly dedicated to reconnaissance missions and support roles for the squadrons that pack a stronger punch. Due to losses suffered during Horizons, the squadron was inactive between 36 ABY and 38 ABY, due to a lack of fighters available.
History
Black Malice Squadron was founded by Proconsul Sashar Arconae following the Eighth Great Jedi War, or the Yuuzhan Vong Incursion. Black Malice is one of the most well known of the teams on the Shadow, both for the important role it played in extracting Soulfire Squadron from Reecee and for flying well against House Galeres in the Feud. Commander Zilghar has high hopes for the future of the team.

Mission
It is a squadron of Warrior Caste pilots commanded by the Commander Zilghar Graviell, Wing Commander, and Quaestor of House Qel-Droma. They carry out a variety of missions for the House, including reconnaissance and support roles with the other squadrons based on the BAC Shadow.
Equipment
Originally, Black Malice Squadron used A-9 Vigilance Interceptors, painted with black stripes on each side and the logo of Arcona on the left and House Qel-Droma on the right. The squadron came close to destruction during the Invasion of New Tython, but eventually continued in active service. However, the entire squadron worth of A-9s were destroyed during Horizons. At this point, Consul Wuntila Entar Arconae decided that the squadron would remain, but with new fighters.
Black Malice now use XJ X-Wings, a relatively new version of the successful X-Wing fighter range by Incom.
