Does Swarm tactics stack?

By BTJ, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Ok, I played a mock game earlier(I played both sides cause I'm a loser like that), and I'd given Vader and Mauler swarm tactics. Could Mauler stick next to Vader to benefit from Vader's swarm, and thus the fighter benefitting from Mauler's swarm also shoots at PS9? Seeing as how for that combat phase Mauler is in all effects PS9. Or am I just being a filthy Munchkin?

Q: Can multiple ships that have Swarm Tactics
equipped use the upgrade in sequence to
give each of those ships the original ship’s
pilot skill value?
A: Yes. For example, the Rebel player has equipped
both Wedge Antilles and Luke Skywalker with
Swarm Tactics. He uses Wedge’s Swarm Tactics to
treat Luke’s pilot skill as a 9, then use Luke’s Swarm
Tactics to treat Rookie Pilot’s pilot skill as a 9.

Epic, thanks for that. That gives TIE swarms a nice little punch
