The Dajorra Defense Force, more commonly known as DDF, is Clan Arcona's Defense, Patrol and Police Force. It is the last line of defense for the Dajorra System and handles all domestic security . The DDF is led by a Commodore who commanded the entire group from the Eye of the Abyss. The DDF was dissolved in 36 ABY in favour of a new fleet layout, but was restored just two years later, though with a few changes to its previous makeup.
History
The DDF was conceived as a police and defense force for the Dajorra system following the debacle at the Battle of Antei in 27 ABY.
While the vast majority of the forces are troops stationed throughout the system and concentrated on the core planets of Eldar and Selen, there is a space contingent for patrol purposes – the Defense Force also has a primary mandate to ensure the safety of the Consul at all times, and as such although the departure of the Eye of the Abyss from the Dajorra system is rare, it will act as the flagship for the entirety of Arcona’s forces and also the Consul’s throne away from the Citadel should he need to leave the system.
Organization
The DDF is organised into two groups: The Defense Force proper comprises the surface forces of all of the planets in Dajorra, while the Defense Task Force comprises the space forces and patrols the system.
The DDF is run on a day-to-day basis by the Commodore, who acts as a liaison between the Defense Task Force and the Defense Force proper. He usually holds office aboard the Eye of the Abyss and is its commanding officer. The ships which make up the DDF often operate independently on smaller missions alongside the Arcona Expeditionary Force and fall under the command of the mission commander on these circumstances.
