Raid on the Fondor Shipyards
During the Galactic Civil War between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, the Rebel X-wing squadron Soaring Dactillions conducted a raid on the Fondor Shipyards,[1] a key starship construction facility in orbit of the planet Fondor,[3] around 0 ABY.[2] The result was that the Rebel pilots took a high amount of casualties, which resulted in the unit being rendered under-strength and rotated to the Cardooine base. A week later, the squadron defended their base using prototype starfighters.[1]
