Tough Squadron was the lesser of the two, being composed of ships that lacked shields or powerful weapons. One of its members was a Gamorrean aft gunner of an original Y-wing, and it had at least two TYE-wings and an X-ceptor. To improve morale, Tough Squadron's pilots wore rakish red scarves around their necks. By the time the decision to evacuate Dantooine arrived, all of Tough Squadron had been destroyed.
