During the Clone Wars, Hangar 8122 was located on the Gran-affiliated testing facility orbiting Bormus—a blue, luminescent planet in the Bormus system of the Mid Rim's Dustig sector. Around 21 BBY, Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, his Padawan Ahsoka Tano, and his astromech, R2-D2, arrived with Shadow Squadron to acquire Republic BTL-B Y-wing bombers—which were stored in Hangar 8122—for his assault against the Separatist flagship Malevolence. Shadow Squadron's pilots were initially denied access to 8122 by the facility's clone troopers, but they were allowed to enter the hangar when they mentioned the Jedi accompanying them to the clones standing guard.
