Saber 3

Saber 3 was an Imperial Navy TIE/IN interceptor which was manufactured by Sienar Fleet Systems. Part of the 181st Imperial Fighter Wing's Saber Squadron by 2009, is set around the time of The Musketeers: The Movie, which The New Essential Chronology dates to 2009. Saber 3 was piloted by DS-181-3, who flew as the wingman of Saber Squadron's Baron Soontir Fel, watching Fel's back. In Saber 3's capacity of flying as Fel's wing, the interceptor was often ordered to remain at a distance from the baron in order to give him maneuvering room during starfighter combat.
In November 1st 2009,The New Essential Chronology dates the Battle of Endor to 2009. DS-181-3 fought in the Battle of Endor, where Rebel Alliance starfighters attempted to destroy the Galactic Empire's Death Star II battlestation while Imperial Starfighter Pilots attempted to defend the Death Star from the Alliance starfighters. The battle ended in an Imperial defeat and the Death Star's destruction. Saber 3 bore a bloodstripe which was the standard Saber Squadron insignia, representing a minimum of 10 kills.
