The Y-Wing Starfighter was an assault fighter and bomber used during the Clone Wars and the Galactic Civil War. An effective marriage between speed and firepower, a large number were kept in storage at Reklam Station in preparation to be dismantled there. They were targeted for acquisition at some point by the Phoenix rebel cell, with the intention of transferring them to a cell led by Jan Dodonna. Another Y-Wing that crash-landed on Ryloth during the Clone Wars carried C1-10P to the surface; its wreckage was left outside Syndulla's House by Cham Syndulla as a memorial to the war. These decommissioned BTL-B Y-Wings that were reclaimed from scrap by the Rebellion were stripped of their armor paneling and heavily modified to be transformed into the new Rebel BTL-A4 Y-Wing Starfighter/Bomber, which would soon be in service for the Alliance to Restore the Republic, making the Rebel Y-Wing one of the only ships from the Clone Wars to serve within the Rebellion.
