Background

Being among the first of the commands established by the Atreus Aerospace Command (AASC) after its establishment in 2190, NAVSPECWAR was established at New Corvus NAS in New Corvus before later moving its command to an undisclosed location in New Rison. It's mission is to provide command, operational training, doctrinal development, and resource allocation to forces operating in areas of unconventional warfare, long-duration special reconnaissance, and general special operations and missions.

NAVSPECWAR is organized majorly based around 4 sections, an operational support company, and various supporting elements, employing over 2000 personnel as of 2205. Each section and subordinate unit operates independently of each other, with very little communication between them under the doctrine of "compartmentalization" to prevent infiltration. This is only modified if required by operations, or to improve efficency.

NAVSPECWAR forces most often operate as part of a larger force or is responsible for training/leading a larger regular force. This includes AASC Assault Carriers, Colonial Defense Regiments, or other units.

Organization

Special Warfare Section One

Special Warfare Section One (SPECWARSEC-1) is the largest of NAVSPECWAR's sections employing near to half of the command's manpower alongside civilian contractors. It is responsible for planning and executing special operations as determined by NAVSPECWARCOM or the Atreus Aerospace Command. As such, it contains the entirety of the Orbital Drop Air Assault Corps of the Atreian House Cavalry.

Special Operations Capable Forces

The 299th Orbital Drop Air Assault Regiment is the primary special operations capable force of Section One, acting as the "sword" of NAVSPECWAR. The regiment directly carries out the various missions required of NAVSPECWAR overall and Section 2 alike, deploying from assault carriers such as the Bakan-Class Assault Carriers, as well as acting as a garrison on Atreian and Veiidic colonies such as New Corvus and New Rison to preform delaying actions, force reconnaissance, and stay-behind operations in case of an invasion of the colonies.

The regiment is organized into three mainline battalions, numbered as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Battalions, with a 4th Support Battalion. Each combat battalion is identical to each other under the regiment's organization, being composed of two Light Dragoon companies mounted either on foot, or in light vehicles to practice mobile warfare and practice reconnaissance-by-fire on larger hostile formations. The third company in each battalion is a Heavy Cuirassier company, they are made up of both heavy exoskeletons including the M6 Revenant Heavy Combat Exosuit and M66 Aegis Main Battle Tank, with their heavier, mechanized organization giving honor to their Kerbin-bound ancestors in Cuirassiers.
