Red 5 Confirmed
Looks like Red 5 was confirmed in the "Stats" spoilers for datacron set 5. I wonder which version of Luke will be the pilot? New or existing?

Red 5 was confirmed months ago just not the release date. Hope it is Farmboy Luke and they dont come out with another version of Luke.
Hopefully it's the best version of Red 5:
I thought you said meathead was the troll....lol
Hahahaha. Yeah that is fair.
I went from given the correct answer to trolling basically immediately."nfidel2k;c-2389402" wrote:

Rey (Scavenger) being the pilot would be funny. The collective brains exploding from a lot of players would be awesome.
You think it's a coincidence that Meat's post shows "Resistance" even though Set 5 doesn't in the game?
Well it’s interesting because the only time Luke’s x-wing was called Red 5 was during the Battle of Yavin. He was Rogue Squadron One at the beginning of E5, and he took off and Wedge took over so his x-wing became just Luke’s taxi one. Then he turned it into a boat anchor.
Lukes boat anchor will have synergy with ewok glider; and both will serve under the great asteroid capital ship…"nfidel2k;c-2389402" wrote:
Well... In Rise of Skywalker, Finn did call it "Red Five".

Poe Dameron: I see her.
Finn: People are rising up all over the galaxy. Poe... we did it.
Poe Dameron: We did it.- Would be hilarious.

Yes, even weirder since Luke abandons his xwing on Cloud City under Imperial control at the end of E5.
There’s always a way to make it work if people really want it, just doesn’t make a lot of sense from continuity. But who needs to care about that."nfidel2k;c-2389781" wrote:

Yup, no possible way he could have ever returned for it."Monel;c-2389786" wrote:

I always assumed Red 5 was an assigned call sign during the attack and not the official name of a specific ship. Like “Gold leader” or “Red leader” was a role they had and not something the ships were referred to afterwards (in another attack another ship could be Red 5 or Red leader)."Monel;c-2389786" wrote:

I really don’t want to keep going back and forth. It’d be more plausible that he was issued another xwing and it’s registration was changed to Red 5, or that he hunted for the parts and rebuilt it while he was picking up force artifacts like Vader’s helmet. Highly doubtful an Imperial garrison left a Rebel x-wing sitting at a docking bay until Luke had time to swing back by.
And it still doesn’t work with how callsigns are used, but whatever makes you happy. Rey 5 GL pilot for the tables.
