THE 'PHANTOM' AT TWENTY: RIC DIVES IN!


Bravo Squadron brings its brightest pilots to bear in attacking the heavily armed and defended Trade Federation Droid Control Ship (noticeable via its huge antenna array). But its shields prove too strong to destroy, despite continued torpedo attacks.

Bravo Squadron dives to attack the antenna array of the Droid Control Ship.

Seen on screen assisting Ric Olie's Bravo Leader -  Bravo 2 (Benedict Taylor), Bravo 3 (Clarence Smith) and Bravo 5 (Celia Imrie). Presumably, the naming of the Naboo Starfighters as Bravo Squadron was a homage/celebration reference to the kind of squadron names given to the brave British fighters in their planes during World War II.
