The Taldryan Navy's Home Fleet is tasked with the defense, and security of Taldryan's home systems. Generally, the home fleet can count on the support from either one, or both of the two Battle Groups, and as such is the smallest of the three fleets. The majority of action that the Home Fleet sees is in inspecting and interdicting incoming traffic to the planets in system to defend against threats. In times of war, the Home Fleet is the final bulwark that prevents Taldryan's home from being invaded.
Mission
The primary mission of the Taldryan Home Fleet is to ensure the safety of Taldryan's home systems, and in particular its inhabited planets. In order to maintain security, the stations present in each system act as a customs and control point for visiting vessels, and they house squadrons of fighters whose job it is to perform inspection patrols on incoming freighters.
In case of attack, when one of more of Taldryan's Battle Groups are in the home system, the Home Fleet acts as a backdrop support, and as an emergency triage facility for any casualties who are deemed too unstable to be transported planetside.
Command Structure
The Taldryan Home Fleet is one of the smaller organizations within the Taldryan Navy, and as such has one of the simplest Command structures within it. Within each home system, there is a local commander of the Home Fleet, his duty is to maintain discipline over the fighting forces assigned to him, and ensure their standing day to day orders.
As the majority of forces that are made to available to the Home Fleet fall under the umbrella of the Starfighter Command, traditionally both system commanders have been drawn from the Starfighter corps ranks, and are required to be ranked at least the OF-6 level.
Despite there being a local commander in each system, there is still an overall chain of command within the Home Fleet. Command of the Kr'Tal home fleet is considered the most prestigious post within the Home Fleet, and whoever commands the Cardan III station in Kr'Tal, is considered the overall leader of the Home Fleet.
In times of war, when one of the Battle Groups is operating in one of the home systems, the Home Fleet becomes subordinate to the Battle Group's chain of command.

Cardan III StationWithNoName
The Name This Bitch
The Cardan III Class Space Station Namethisbitch is the newest defense platform serving Taldryan, and is the primary defensive hardpoint in the Kr'Tal system. Commissioned to replace the aging Infinity Station, the Namethisbitch was purchased following the Tenth Great Jedi War. Commanded by Colonel Ark Lassik of the Starfighter Command, a veteran combat pilot, and solid tactician, Lassik is the overall Commander of Kr'Tal's Home Fleet, reporting directly to High Admiral Tak Vordin and the Taldryan Strategic Operations Council (TalSOC).
Housed aboard the Namethisbitch is the First Taldryan Home Defense Wing, which acts as the primary fighter force for Kr'Tals defense.

Citadel Alpha is Taldryan's Longest serving defense platform. Awarded to Taldryan after it's victory in the Seventh Great Jedi War, it has served as a base, and the primary point of defense in the Kr'Tal system until a newer Cardan-III Station was purchased. Citadel Alpha also maintains a secondary office for Fleet Commander High Admiral Tak Vordin, when he wishes to escape from the daily grind of the Taldryan Headquarters, but not aboard the flagship commanding the fleet in joint operations.
Citadel Alpha falls under Colonel Lassik's command, and its starfighter squadrons are led by Major Braxis Codi, the Commander of the Second Taldryan Home Defense Wing

The Corellian Gunship is a small, but powerful vessel. One of the few classes designed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation specifically for combat, it is both fast and packs a punch. The Flamewind was one of two such vessels acquired by Taldryan following the Eighth Great Jedi War, and is commanded by Commander Torin Erollisi, a rising star within the Taldryan Navy.
GSP Stormwind

The second of the two Corellian Gunship that Taldryan acquired following the Eight Great Jedi Wars is named the Stormwind, and is commanded by Commander Merenia, a staunchly loyal member of Taldryan's armed forces.
YCHT Expedition
The final element that is attached to the Home Fleet, Kr'Tal is the Baudo-class star yacht Expedition. Though it contains no military value, the Expedition is kept constantly at the ready for members of Taldryan's ruling council as a pleasure yacht, a diplomatic vessel, or an emergency escape vessel depending on it's current need. No pilot is permanently assigned to this vessel, as many of the people who are authorized to use it either disdain other people flying for them, or prefer to keep retainers who they know and trust to be their personal pilots.
