It looks like "Star Wars" fans may get to see a familiar ship zooming in and out along with a certain space smuggler during the upcoming "Star Wars Rebels" season 3 episode, "Iron Squadron."

Last Sunday, Disney XD released a preview clip for the newest episode of the third season of "Star Wars Rebels," the space-battle filled episode "Iron Squadron" and it looks like the trailer gives fans a glimpse of an oh-so familiar ship, the notoriously popular Millenium Falcon. The preview episode opens with the Ghost Crew trying to assess an incoming battle with a group of TIE fighters, and viewers get to see a the Imperial Fighters chasing down what seems to be the Millenium Falcon during the first few seconds of the clip.

"They've got cargo of some kind, maybe they're smugglers" Hera thinks out loud.

In the preview, the Ghost team then decide to send the Phoenix rebel team to assist the Millenium Falcon-look alike cargo ship as it tries to shoot down the TIE ships and the Imperial transport on its own.

According to Comicbook, the Millenium Falcon look-alike is a YT-2400 Freighter, a ship that's often used by space smuggler's because of sturdiness, speed and the ships ability for easy modification. YT-2400 is the same model as Han Solo's Millenium Flacon, however it seems like the ship belongs to someone entirely else. Called the "Outrider," the ship was used by Dash Rendar, a rogue space smuggler. Like Admiral Thrawn, Dash Rendar comes from the "Star Wars Legends" expanded universe and to find him coming in to the canon segment of the "Star Wars" franchise through "Star Wars Rebels" is exciting for fans.

The description of the episode reads:

"Iron Squadron:Ezra and Sabine team up to tame a rogue young hotshot pilot and his crew who recklessly risk their lives in a fight to defend their home world from Imperial occupation."
