One Sad thing about this song is that this song is dedicated to all Polish Fighter pilots who fought in the battle of Britain . In the end of the war in 1945, Churchill sold all Polish pilots to Stalin as his gesture of "appeasement" to the Soviet leader . All Polish pilots were killed by USSR .

I really like how this was done. Most of the time it's just a continuous cut of whatever battle happened in a movie with music playing over it because the poster has no talent for editing. This was cut in such away that the music and movie work together to convey the proper emotions. Like when the music crescendos and the squadron of X-Wings comes screaming in, I get chills.

Star Wars and Sabaton...like milk and cereal

The X-wing is like the F-15 eagle. In the fact that for every X-wing it takes 4+ ties to take it down

Wedge Antilles' successor (who honestly was probably trained by Wedge): The best Starfighter Pilot in the Galaxy, Poe Dameron
Admiral Ackbar's successor: The WORST commander in Star Wars who was not actively trying to murder her men. So of course, she tries to put down the worthy successor as much as possible.

Poor Ackbar. :( Got fridged without remorse just so they could give us Purple Hair

This song and scenes makes the Battle in the Force Awakens more interesting... I love the battles of X-Wing Fighters against the First Order's Star Killer Base..

In the ending scene of Episode-4 and the original X-Wing game, the YT-1300 Millennium Falcon and the fighters fly out-and-home the old-fashioned way using slower-than-light travel since the Pyramid Temple of Yavin is within flying distance of the Death Star.
In Episode-5, the Rebels escape the Empire's occupation of Hoth in their ships by portal-jumping out of the system while Luke flies in his X-Wing to Dagobah to meet Jedi Master Yoda (the only surviving Jedi Master from the prequel arcs) and rescue his friends at Bespin using slower-than-light travel. After escaping Bespin, the YT-1300 Millennium Falcon makes a portal-jump to escape the Executor.
In Episode-6, the Rebel fleet assembles at Sullust before they portal-jump to Endor with the YT-1300 Millennium Falcon and the fighter squadrons first to jump and the capital ships to follow. After the battle, the surviving ships in the fleet fly down to the planet's surface for their crews to hold a victory party.
In Episode-7, the strike force made of about three dozen X-Wings and the YT-1300 Millennium Falcon freighter sorties out of D'Qar by hyperspace-jumping to reach the First Order's Starkiller base and launch a two-pronged attack with Han's team going in to sabotage the doomsday weapon by attacking it with grenades while Poe's X-Wings launch an airstrike on the fortress that ends with Poe firing all six of his proton torpedoes into the thermal oscillator to destabilize the weapon and blow up the fortress and the planet it's built into. After the battle, the strike force portal-jumps back home to signify that their mission is accomplished.

There may be a lot of things wrong with the new trilogy, but there are four things I can say I definitely like: Poe, Finn, the visual effects, and the T-70 X-wing!

[tyfgrtrgyu]

i would say they are aces in X-ile (yay shit X-wing pun)

[yapyap]

Friend: who would win?
Me: I don't know but I can tell you it most certainly won't be a tie
😎

[frysandwich]

Poe Dameron should have been Poe Antilles. The character would make so much more sense

Fun fact, ChewBacca’s species (Wookiees) are native to the planet of Kashykk. When the Empire came to power, they subjugated the planet and its inhabitants, turning many of them into slaves. Chewbacca was among the captives. His life was saved by Han Solo, which meant that according to Wookiee tradition, Chewbacca swore a life debt to Solo. This is why the two were often seen together (and is also why ChewBacca was very upset when Han was killed by Kylo Ren) Admiral Ackbar and Admiral Raddus were part of the Mon Calimari species. Their planet was also subjugated by Imperial forces just one year into Imperial reign. During this event, King Lee Char was captured by Vader. However, before Imperial forces completely overran the planet’s defenses, 5 Mon Calimari cruisers were ordered to escape. 3 managed to get past Imperial Star Destroyers, and these ships, which were essentially just heavily converted city structures, would later become the backbone of the Rebel fleet. Almost 2 decades later, Raddus would lead the fleet to Scarif, and though his ship, the Profundity, was disabled, Raddus was able to buy just enough time for 3/4 of the Rebel ships to escape before (likely) being killed by stormtroopers. Ackbar on the other hand, led the Rebels in their assault on the second Death Star. His ship was the Home One, and unlike Raddus, Admiral Ackbar not only survived the battle of Endor, but, aided by Han, Luke, Lando, and many others, destroyed the Death Star 2, securing a victory for the Rebels.

I just noticed something: beyond the first shot, all of the first order fighters are being cased down. if thes took place 30 years ago, it'd be the other way around

[AIMFOX]

Stormtroopers: why do I hear boss music?

[Scioneer]

They need to have Wedge in the next movie.

[djackchocoa]

1:08-1:20 how many didnt he shoot down. Erich hartmann 2.0

[pentadeuce]

The rebel pilots in Force Awakens are impressive. After all the X-wing was getting outdated during the original trilogy, and they're still using them.

[Rebel]

This would have been a really cool video if it weren't for the fact that you used the sequels

[Wookie]

Why do they put this sorry, stinking crappy music to these videos?
