Red Squadron is the wireless callsign of several fighter squadrons.

During the Battle of the Binary Star System, it is led by Captain Marcia "Showboat" Case (TRS: "The Captain's Hand").

The combined Raptor and Viper squadron used as decoy in the Battle of New Caprica, led by Kat, is also called Red Squadron (TRS: "Exodus, Part II").

Later, Red Squadron is the callsign of a Combat Air Patrol led by Apollo (TRS: "The Son Also Rises").

Similar terms[edit]
