Fighter Red, also called Red E Squadron or just Red Squadron, comprised a group of E-wing escort starfighters. These fighters were part of the New Republic Defense Fleet Fifth Battle Group, specifically assigned to the Intrepid, an Endurance-class fleet carrier.
The carrier's premier interceptor squadron, Fighter Red, also housed the personal E-wing of General Etahn A'baht.
Leading up to the Battle of Doornik 319, Fighter Red stood ready for immediate deployment from the Intrepid. Upon the Intrepid's arrival in the system, Fighter Red formed a component of the fleet carrier's defensive fighter screen, and it is believed they took part in the subsequent combat during the Yevethan surprise attack. Subsequently, as preparations were underway for the final attack on N'zoth, General A'baht proposed that Luke Skywalker lead the squadron in the Battle of N'zoth, an offer which Skywalker declined.
