Velocity Squadron was a starfighter squadron that formed part of the Arcona Starfighter Corps. It served out of the Interdictor Creeping Darkness. It was annihilated by forces loyal to former Grand Master Zoraan during the Horizons incident in 36ABY.
History
Velocity Squadron was founded by Proconsul Sashar Arconae following the Eighth Great Jedi War, or the Yuuzhan Vong Incursion. Dark Sight is one of the most illustrious and daring teams stationed on the Creeping Darkness, both for the roles it played in the House Feud and for the perfectly executed extraction of Soulfire Strike Team on Reecee.
The squadron was eventually destroyed, along with its parent ship, in 36ABY. Although the Arcona Starfighter Corps suffered great losses during the Horizons battles, including the loss of virtually every TIE Interceptor, Velocity was one of few squadrons to be immediately dissolved - others were given new starfighters or 'suspended' due to a lack of fighters.
Mission
Velocity Squadron was one of the two squadrons assigned to the INT Creeping Darkness in the Arcona Expeditionary Fleet, and their primary role in the Fleet were to be the versatile fighters capable of carrying out any mission for the AEF. Each starfighter pilot ws trained to provide a variety of services in combat, both support, attack, and defend.
Equipment
Velocity Squadron pilots used TIE Interceptors with the logos of Clan Arcona on the left and right sides.
