Starfighter Command was the military wing of Federation formed in the aftermath of the Borg War in the early 25th century.

Overview

The Starfighter Command consists of squadrons of starfighters and minor patrol boats and tends to assign its units to individual outposts, bases, and other such colonies for their prelimary and standard defence. On occasion, squadrons are assigned to Starfleet vessels as a means to supplement their combat capabilities, particularly for explorative and offensive duties.

Originally established as a minor wing of Starfleet itself, Starfighter Command drew it's personnell from both naval and marine pilots. After several years of success, it was proposed by the Executive Branch and passed through the Council to set up the organisation as an independent military wing, with the same freedoms afforded the newly formed Federation Mobile Infantry and Starfleet itself.

Under the command of Chief Marshall Castor Wolfram, Starfighter Command maintains approximately two dozen squadrons, both the former twelve of the old Earth Defence Force, and assorted colonial defenders as well as specialist squadrons. However, most are actively engaged in defensive roles following the recent unrest caused by the Vulcan secession from the Federation.

Order of Battle

Sol System Defence

Starfighter Command has split the twelve former Earth Defence Force Squadrons up in to 3 wings:

  • Alpha Wing
  • Beta Wing
  • Charlie Wing.

Each Wing performs a specific role within the fleet:

  • Alpha Wing is tasked with long-term response to the Vulcan threat;
  • Beta Wing is tasked with boarder defence and interdiction missions;
  • Charlie Wing is the system's training wing.

Recently Starfighter Command fielded the first starship squadron, designated SFCV-1, aboard the USS Enterprise (NX-1701-F).
