Vanguard

Vanguard squadrons form the specialized fighter squadrons of the Federation fleet. The Vanguard conduct high-risk operations and exploration of distant planets and sectors. Prominent operations include the disruption of Jericho forces in the Sector of Bartle and the interception of a Jericho message warning of dangerous activity in sector 1337. Being the best of the Federation pilots, they use improved ships and systems. The Vanguard show their elitism with their white, blue-grey, and orange color scheme.
