I don't know if this has been covered before, but like Luke had R2-D2, which other pilots had specific astromechs? I have been trying to find a list but havn't had any luck.
Which pilots had specific Astromechs?
Off the top of my head:
Wedge - R2A3
Biggs - R2Q2, who looks the same as R2F2 in the game
Porkins - R5D8
Garven - R5K6
Corran - "Whistler"
Ekelarc Yong (a ywing pilot not in the game) - R5P9
I'm sure there's more, and I know Wedge used more than 1 droid, but that's all I got.
Edited by cody campbellThis might be the link you're looking for:
In the X-wing book series, Wedge had an R5-D2 named "Mynock", who eventually got an upgrade and became R5-G8, or "Gate".
R5-D8 works great with Porkins and makes his ability more useful.
