The Aerie, a Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier, served the Galactic Empire's 204th Imperial Fighter Wing. It engaged in the pursuit and subsequent destruction of the New Republic frigate named Hellion's Dare.
Alexander Freed's Alphabet Squadron novel, released in 2019, marked the initial appearance of the Aerie. In 2023, the reference book Star Wars: Timelines features a section about the Aerie and incorporates an image of the Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier, specifically the Phoenix Nest, as seen in the Star Wars Rebels episode "Homecoming".
