Angry Apes

12th Earth Defence Force Squadron
The 12th Earth Defence Force Squadron, referred to as the "Angry Apes" is one of the more revolutionaries efforts by Starfleet Command to return to a former structure that suggested strength and competence to the entire galaxy. With the decimation that Starfighter Command suffered during the Borg Wars, re-establishing the infrastructure and flexibility fighter squadrons offered was considered important, and the Apes are at the forefront of the efforts to place a fighter squadron in a prominent position of responsibility. With most other squadrons in existence assigned to simple guard duty, the Apes are the first of a new generation of independent fighter squadrons.
They are commanded by Major Joseph Ryan, call-sign 'Edge', and based off Zephyria Base when on ground-duty or with the USS Thunderchild for their use on more extended missions. The Apes and the Thunderchild together present a 'Rapid Response' unit within the Earth Defence Force, to react to any sudden threats that may emerge in the Sol system.
