Typhon Squadron: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:56, 24 August 2025

Typhon Wayfinding Division is a division of Fourth Fleet operating under Task Force 47 under the command of Captain Anyanka Harrison.

Consisting of two seperate divisions operating on opposite sides of the Federation, the squadron aims to develop the initial promise of exploration and first contact into a secure footing for expansion into the wild frontier. Typhon Squadron is focused on pathfinding efforts where independant communities, be they large or small, present benefits to Starfleet's strategic and exploratory efforts over resource or territorial expansion aims.

Composition

Typhon Wayfinding Division

USS Typhon - a Typhon-class Carrier
USS Daedalus - a Rhode Island-class Scout
USS Circe, a Steamrunner-class heavy frigate

Ascension Emissary Division

Assigned to developing interests in the Thomar Expanse, the division is built around USS Ascension and undertakes missions where diplomatic support and advanced starship services are required for smaller colonies and independant communities. Whilst Ascension is a capable starship, it is relatively outdated by modern standards and is deployed with USS Hart and USS Skofnung to support more specialist mission profiles. Given their proximity to Deep Space 47, ongoing operational needs are more easily served and thus the division does not have a deep space explorer assigned to it.

USS Ascension

USS Ascension is an Ambassador-class emissary that leads the Division's missions with a robust adaptability. Crewed by a team of Starfleet veterans with several centuries of collective service experience, Ascension brings a glimmer of a different age of Starfleet to the expanse, where diplomacy and exploration were the in the heart of every officer.

Following recent galactic events including Frontier Day and the Vaadwaur Invasion, Ascension has found itself undertaking missions in the region that would traditionally be undertaken by more advanced vessels due to a raft of reassignments. The crew relish the opportunity to return to front line service and seek to make the best impression possible, both to visiting dignitaries and their superiors.

USS Hart

USS Hart is a Norway-class light cruiser that provides mission support to the flagship for long term deployment with independant groups. Acting as host to visiting teams of engineers and scientists, Hart lends herself out as an advanced platform for third party projects to groups and colonies who lack resources or capability to undertake them alone.

USS Skofnung

USS Skofnung is a Saber-Class frigate that provides strategic tactical support to the division, specialising in anti-piracy and coast guard duties as part of the groups mission. Fitted with several sensor upgrades and an extensive suite of ECCM tools, Skofnung specialises in discoering, pursuing and securing fugitives on behalf of the Federation and those groups it supports.
