Description: Jun Sato was a human male who commanded the Phoenix Cell, a resistance group that operated against the Galactic Empire in the years prior to the Battle of Yavin. He and his cell, which included a group of A-wing starfighters known as Phoenix Squadron, were affiliated with the larger rebel movement operated by Senator Bail Organa. At the recommendation of Senator Organa, Sato welcomed the Spectres into his fleet, and the two cells fought side by side in a number of engagements. Sato lost his command ship, Phoenix Home, after it was destroyed by the Sith Lord Darth Vader, after which Sato transferred his command to the CR90 corvette Liberator and later the Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier Phoenix Nest.

Commander Sato and Captain Hera Syndulla continued leading the Phoenix Squadron in the period between 3 BBY and 2 BBY. During this time, Sato saw action in numerous missions and skirmishes against the Empire. Phoenix Squadron later established a base called Chopper Base on the planet Atollon. He reunited with his nephew Mart Mattin during the skirmish above Mykapo. After Phoenix Squadron joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Sato's forces joined forces with General Jan Dodonna's Massassi Group for a planned assault on Lothal. However, Grand Admiral Thrawn learned of their plans and attacked Atollon. Sato sacrificed his life during the Battle of Atollon in order to allow Ezra Bridger and Chopper to escape and seek help, killing Admiral Kassius Konstantine in the process.

Jun Sato was a human male from the planet Mykapo. As a young man, he was offered a spot in a crystal smuggling ring, which he took for credits. As a cover, he got himself accepted into the prestigious crystal processing school of the planet Isobe, in the Thustra system. When most natives were hostile and even violent to him, Sato found comfort and support with Princess Althea, daughter of the planetary leader Lord Hallux, who would even tend to his wounds. Eventually, Sato was caught red-handed smuggling stolen crystals. Although he defended himself that night in front of Lord Hallux, his son Thelan and a very dismayed Althea, Sato was found guilty of the charge and banished from Isobe for the rest of his life, on pain of death. Because of his shame and pride, Sato never tried to contact Althea again after his banishment, although there was much he wanted to tell her.

Personality and traits

Jun Sato was a human male with brown-but-greying hair and brown eyes. He was a by-the-books commander, operating his cell using military protocols. He was grateful that the Ghost had become part of his fleet and felt that the rebels had proven invaluable to the rebellion's cause, though he also believed that the Spectres lacked effective discipline. During Darth Vader's assault on the Phoenix fleet, Sato at first refused to allow his crew to abandon Phoenix Home, as he was unwilling to lose his own command ship. Once he realized that the ship was lost, however, he regretfully agreed with Captain Syndulla's advice to order his crew to evacuate the ship.

Sato was a strategist who realized the importance of the rebellion in winning new recruits, new starships, and finding a base. He was a courageous commander even in the face of adversity. When captured by Admiral Brom Titus, Sato was not afraid and tried to intimidate the Admiral by claiming that he and his crew were members of the Corporate Alliance. Sato realized that Ezra Bridger had good leadership potential and promoted the youth to Lieutenant Commander following a successful prison heist on Naraka. However, Sato overlooked Ezra's aggressive streak and brush with the dark side of the Force.

Sato had a brother and a nephew named Mart Mattin. After losing his brother, Sato thought he had lost his family until Hera encountered Mart during a mission to Mykapo. Sato was determined to do anything to reunite with his nephew. He was grateful to Hera and her crew for risking their lives to save Mart. Sato regarded Mart as stubborn and rebellious but still loved his nephew. The two happily embraced each other during their reunion at Chopper Base.

Sato was ready to lay down his life for the rebellion. Sato sacrificed his life by ramming his command ship Phoenix Home into an interdictor cruiser. His sacrifice enabled Ezra and Chopper to escape and seek reinforcements offworld.
