What can I Squad?
There are a few types of ships that you can squad together. These include all the Fighter class ships as well as several freighters (Lambda Shuttle, DX-9 Dropship, Delta-Class JV-7 Escort Shuttle, Sentinel-class Landing Craft).
You can also squad any vehicles of the same type, this is particularly important for prospecting as using a squad of FK-7 Airspeeders or SX-65 Groundhogs will increase your chances.
