Overview
Starfleet Special Operations are enlisted and officers who have completed rigorous training and study outside of the Academy to take on asymmetric missions during both periods of wartime and peace. While all operational members have security and tactical backgrounds, members of other divisions can apply to undertake training to help round out team abilities and make teams a more effective force.These soldiers spend their duty days honing skills, situation training and conducting classes. They are expected to be able to undertake missions of not only assault operations, but infiltration, sabotage, espionage, intelligence gathering, and diplomacy.
Special Operations Divisions
Omega - These soldiers were originally created as a joint task force to fight the Borg specifically. Comprised of both Federation and Klingon personnel, Omega's training went intensely into finding and exploiting weaknesses within the constructs of Borg technology. Omega teams consisted of both ground forces and ships, which operated independently of the main forces of either government. While plentiful at one time, their numbers have dwindled in recent years as the threat of Borg invasion has lessened.
Delta - The current "main body" of Starfleet Special Forces within the 22nd, Delta were created to bring a more balanced approach to face the new enemies of Starfleet on different fronts. While not specializing in a particular enemy, Delta have been trained to be extremely adaptable to new emerging threats. These soldiers can be seen wearing forest green on their duty uniforms, instead of the standard division colors. Delta teams operate on all Daedalus ships in coordination with regular security teams.
