One of Taldryan's Hyperion Fighters
BAC Dark Prophet II
As Taldryan's Elite Starfighter Squadron, Hyperion Flight operates outside of the normal chain of command within the Starfighter Corps. As they are expected to carry out specialized missions from the Battle Group Commander, Hyperion is based off the Dark Prophet II, but falls within no designated Wing.
M/INT Orthanc
As one of the most important tactical assets with the Taldryan Fleet, the Orthanc merits a special level of attention, and so Howler Squadron is assigned to be the escort and close protection Squadron of Taldryan's Interdictor.
Merach Planetary Defense
Merach is an inhospitable planet that is rather rich in mineral wealth that Taldryan won in the Seven Day War, a skirmish between the Clans of the Brotherhood over who would retain rights to the rich deposits on the planet's surface. Despite it being part of Taldryan's Dominion, Merach is largely left to its own devices, and has a permanently assigned squadron of Assault Gunboats to defend the planet and its shipments from outside interference.
