Avenger Elite Squadron (AES) was one of the TIE Corps' four special operations squadrons. It is currently decommissioned, and reflagged as Avenger Squadron (Command Detachment) for the temporary affiliation of members of the TIE Corps and Emperor's Hammer Admiralty.

Avenger was based on the VSDII Aggressor and attached to the Aggressor Strike Force. Avenger's primary focus was multiplayer combat. As Avenger Squadron (Command Detachment), it remains assigned to the VSDII Aggressor.

Avenger Black Shirts

TIE Shadow of AES

The Avenger Black Shirt is an award that is unique to the squadron, with few having earned it even among the elite cadre of pilots that have flown in the squadron.

Earning it requires an extraordinary amount of combat prowess or exceptional service to the squadron. If a pilot, in a single month, completed any of the following four conditions, they would earn the award

• 100 Combat Rating gain
• 300 FCHG rating gain
• 50 Combat Rating gain plus 150 FCHG rating gain
• 5 IWATS courses plus 30 Combat Rating gain plus 100 FCHG rating gain

Additionally, a Black Shirt could be awarded for services rendered to the squadron that the commander and both flight leaders unanimously agree is worthy of recognition.
