A War for the Stars

[Erax]

And now the starfighter ranks.

Imperial Starfighter Force Ranks

Unit - Commander rank - # Craft - Army equivalent rank
Starfighter Force - Commodore - (4 Groups) - Brigadier-General
Group - Group Captain - (4 wings) - Colonel
Wing - Wing Commander - 72 - Lieutenant Colonel
Squadron - Squadron Leader - 12 - Major
Flight - Flight Lieutenant - 4 - Captain
Element* - Flying Officer - 2 - First Lieutenant
Single* - Pilot Officer - 1 - Second Lieutenant

* - The flight is the smallest official unit in the Imperial command structure. Elements and single craft may operate independently depending on their mission.

Starfighter organization is quite flexible. In practice, the upper echelons are organized according to the needs of the sector armed forces, which means they rarely have the theoretical sizes given here.

You may get the Navy Ranks directly from the SWTC site (in the story it will usually be obvious how many ships a naval officer commands). I won't post a list of ISB ranks unless I absolutely have to.
