Obelisk squadron was an elite TIE fighter unit serving in the Galactic Civil War. It was formed just after the Battle of Yavin, to combat the increased Rebel fighter activity that Imperial Strategists predicted. They were considered one of the best squadrons in the Empire, besting even Rogue Squadron at Cato Neimodia. However, in 4 ABY, Darth Vader assigned Obelisk Squadron to Sullust to combat a Rebel task force seeking to lure the Empire away from Endor.

  • Obelisk squadron was an elite TIE fighter unit serving in the Galactic Civil War. It was formed just after the Battle of Yavin, to combat the increased Rebel fighter activity that Imperial Strategists predicted. They were considered one of the best squadrons in the Empire, besting even Rogue Squadron at Cato Neimodia. However, in 4 ABY, Darth Vader assigned Obelisk Squadron to Sullust to combat a Rebel task force seeking to lure the Empire away from Endor. The squadron and a force of two Victory-class Star Destroyers and 11 Corellian Corvettes arrived at Sullust, only to find a huge Rebel fleet, including the infamous Nomad Squadron. Obelisk squadron were massacred, leaving only Lieutenant Tjaden Alyn. With the death of the Emperor, Alyn appealed to Sate Pestage for replacement pilots. Pestage responded by refilling Obelisk's rooster with teen pilots, only half trained. Alyn continued to lead, but suffered numerous defeats, due to the squadrons lack of ability. Obelisk squadron were eventually wiped out at the Battle of Coruscant by their old adversaries, Rogue Squadron.
