Imperial Special Operations Flights Engage in Training Skirmishes

ARKANIS SYSTEM - Imperial Navy pilots of the Arkanis Sector Group engaged in training skirmishes today in preparation for continued action against the criminal elements and insurgents within the Arkanis sector.

Most squad configurations features a VT-49 Decimator, one of the Empire's premier weapons platforms for hunting both cartel operatives as well as terrorist elements seeking the overthrow of the legitimate galactic order.

Added to this configuration were TIE Interceptors with elite pilots capable of outmaneuvering and outflying the slower rebel and cartel starfighters.

This configuration is considered ideal for the mission at hand in the lawless and chaotic Arkanis sector.

Yesterday, Moff Dzon Brennin made it clear that the standard Imperial Navy order of battle for starfighters was ill-suited to the theater under his command. He personally relieved one wing commander of his command for ordering a standard flight of TIE fighters into the sector to combat the Empire's enemies.

Some commentators at Imperial Central (Coruscant) suggested that the Moff was questioning the wisdom of the standard Imperial Navy Order of Battle, which perhaps demonstrated his own questionable loyalty.

"The Arkanis sector represents a special case," Moff Brennin clarified. "The Imperial Order of Battle was designed to deal with a conventional military threat, such as the Separatists were. The Rebellion, as well as the Arkanis cartels, are nothing of that sort, and they require a special-operations response. This is what we have enacted in the Arkanis sector, and it is working."

With the Arkanis sector seemingly still a lawless region, beset by corrupt cartels and nihilistic rebels, the Moff remains to be vindicated. Voices for his dismissal are heard at Imperial Central in favor of a more doctrinaire approach.
