The 87th Naval Fleet is seeking a new wave of Odyssey and Horizon Pilots to join us as friends and supporters of our endeavors out on the edge of the bubble!

ABOUT US:DETER. DEFEND. DEFEAT.
CLICK HERE TO ENLIST!
We are Federation aligned squadron that TEACHES many elements of a "roleplaying" group or a "Mil-Sim" group for our members to PARTICIPATE in! Operating on the edge of the bubble we work the Background Ground Simulation (The BGS) of our area as we work against Independent, Imperial, and Alliance factions. Along the way we have many opportunities to tell stories, create tales and adventures, and of course, forge friendships with the pilots that we fly with.
We have a Fleet Carrier, the FNS Intrepid that is fully equipped and capable of ferrying the fleet from operation zone to operation zone! We have a whole team of pilots with dedicated Fleet Carrier as well. Serving as mobile battle stations they often allow the convenient use of large ships and repair, rearm, and refueling facilities. Think of the FNS Intrepid as the perfect place to "live off of" in Elite Dangerous.
Upon enlisting, we give you the rank of Recruit (RCT) and within a week or two of engaging gameplay, you'll be right up at Midshipman or Petty Officer leading our charge into the stars!
Our fleet uses the Federation ranking system and we make sure that each rank has responsibilities and tasks that make it engaging to fly with us. From Recruit, Cadet, Midshipman to the Officer ranks of Lieutenant and Post Captain to the Senior ranks of Rear, Vice, and Fleet Admiral, everyone has a part to play!
OUR FIGHTER WINGS:
Don't be intimidated by these wings, the 87th Naval Fleet uses these to forge camaraderie among our pilots. Upon being assigned to a squadron/wing we work with you to help build up the culture and inter wing FRIENDLY Rivalries. Always good to know you can best the other pilots of our fleet!
118th Tactical Fighter Wing
A large team-based wing that tries its best to prioritize group combat. Each team, Mobius, Omega, and Viper is comprised of 4 pilots with their associated reserve auxiliaries. Usually working in their teams in conflict zones both in space and on ground, the 118th Tactical Fighter Wing's main duty is ensuring our continued success in combat.
Best for pilots who want to fly with several members at the same time in explosive situations!
729th Strike Fighter Wing
A smaller wing that focuses more on single and duo mission undertaking. Nimble and light to deal "Strikes" the teams of the 729th are Sabre, Cutlass, and Rapier. Though each has nominally 4 pilots, most commanders will act in small teams to take care of missions. Both in space and on ground, the 729th is the surgical knife the 118th's hammer needs.
Best for pilots who don't typically enjoy playing in large teams and prefer a more solitary approach!
111th Tactical Fighter Wing
XBOX
The 111th is currently just one team of pilots that operates from XBOX (or as we say in-lore "XBOX encryption protocols") In doing so, the 111th represents the 87th Naval Fleet on XBOX and partakes in the same objectives as our pilots on PC. Given the smaller size, the 111th is a combination of the 118th and 729th's playstyles and everything in-between.
Works closely with MARSOC our spiritual inspiration for the 87th!
92nd Research and Expeditionary Wing
The 92nd fills out a very special role within the 87th. Often, we need systems updated for the BGS or we simply need intel on a specific system or region of space. Operating out of the single team, Atlas, the 92nd goes out scouting settlements and stations and updating Inara by having pilots use ED market connector or similar. In doing so, the 87th can keep a better eye on our holdings throughout the galaxy.
Suited best for pilots who are pacifists or who feel that Exploration is their calling. The 92nd does deploy on long distance explorations! (1K to 5K light year expeditions into Thargoid and Guardian Areas)
666th Special Operations Wing
The 666th, as evidenced by its ominous number, is the dark special ops wing. Often involved in civilian killing or sketchy, shady operations, the 666th is for pilots who really enjoy roleplay and being rather "evil" or "callous" in their actions. By no means is this wing just morally grey, this wing is full of some of the most jovial pilots in the whole fleet. Suited best for hyper active pilots who enjoy decoding puzzles (YES, WE HAVE PUZZLES) and talking encrypted.
08th Mobile Suit Team
Our ODYSSEY ground battalion. Pilots who are part of the other wings and want to also do ground combat and operations are assigned the 08th.
With Odyssey update 8 and 9 rumored to bring more features to ground combat, the 08th Mobile Suit team (Yes that's a Gundam reference) is likely to grow in size and scope using SRVs more in combat.

A community of players dedicated to the exploration of Elite Dangerous, adventure within the missions and stuff we get ourselves into, and a community from which to tell stories and enjoy the game with. As long as you don't stir up controversy within the fleet, we promise to be the best wing mates and fly-buddies this way south of Sagittarius A*. We want to craft a true experience for pilots and given our interests and the wonderful sandbox that is Elite Dangerous, and we want you to join us.
FORWARD THE FEDERATION!!!
