'''''Star Wars: X-Wing Tour of Duty: B-Wing''''' was the second expansion pack for the ''[[Star Wars: X-Wing]]'' video game, providing new missions for players. It was released in [[1993]], following the [[Star Wars: X-Wing Tour of Duty: Imperial Pursuit|''Imperial Pursuit'']] expansion released earlier that year. Once installed, the ''B-Wing'' missions appeared as "Tour of Duty V" in the game.

Subsequent releases of the original game included both expansion packs.

==Opening crawl==
{{Opening crawl
|name=Tour of Duty V<br />B-Wing
|text=After the Battle of Yavin, the
Alliance Fleet had no choice
but to abandon its main base.
Pursued by Imperial forces,
the Alliance survived
treachery and starvation.

Now the search for a new base
continues as does the Emperor
and Lord Vader's desire to
destroy the Rebellion.

But the Alliance prepares to
unleash a new weapon&hellip;
the B-wing Starfighter!
}}

==Plot==
The expansion focuses on the production of a new craft, the [[A/SF-01 B-wing starfighter/Legends|B-wing]], and its delivery to the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebellion]]. The tour ends with the arrival on [[Hoth/Legends|Hoth]] and the construction of [[Echo Base/Legends|Echo Base]], setting the stage for [[Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back|''The Empire Strikes Back'']].

During the first stage of the tour (missions 1 - 8) the Rebels perform their first tests of the B-wing starfighter and make efforts to attract a new ally. The [[Habassa]], being an isolationist culture, are initially highly reluctant to join the Alliance. However, the Rebels manage convince them by first rescuing Habassan prisoners from an [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Imperial]] convoy, and afterwards defending a Habassan convoy from an Imperial ambush. Alliance pilots also destroy a secret space installation where the Empire attempts to recreate the stolen [[Shield X]] technology.

During the second stage of the tour (missions 9 - 14), with the Habassa having joined the Alliance, the Rebels start preparing their final escape from the pursuing [[Imperial Navy/Legends|Imperial Fleet]]. They steal and modify Imperial survaillance probes, destroy several system patrol squadron bases, and continue their support for the Habassa by protecting their convoys from Imperial attacks. The Alliance captures an Imperial [[Frigate/Legends|Frigate]] and Imperial officers in order to get up-to-date information on their positions.

During the final stage of the tour (missions 15 - 20) the Rebels need to completely disappear from Imperial sight, in order to perform the final evacuation to Hoth. They destroy a probe calibration site and, eventually, the Star Destroyer [[Relentless (Sunaj IV)|''Relentless'']], which processed the information from all probes in the sector. The Alliance eliminated any remaining probes in [[Operation Blunt Stick]] and the fleet made their final jumps to Hoth, despite the interference of several Imperial Frigates.

Players receive the [[Talons of Hoth]] medal for successfully completing the tour of duty.
