Guardians of Order, Protectors of Progress — The UEE Navy 17th Expeditionary Fleet stands ready to defend, explore, and enforce peace across Stanton and beyond.
The UEE Navy 17th Expeditionary Fleet was established in the aftermath of the Vanduul incursions, as the United Empire of Earth (UEE) recognized the need for a versatile and highly mobile force to secure vital trade routes and protect core systems. Assigned to the bustling and economically critical Stanton system, the 17th Fleet quickly gained recognition for its ability to adapt to a wide range of missions, from rapid response operations to deep-space expeditions.
Originally tasked with safeguarding Stanton’s corporate interests, the fleet expanded its scope to include frontier exploration and inter-system conflict resolution. With its flagship, the UEES Resolute, leading the charge, the 17th Fleet became a symbol of UEE strength and unity, projecting power and maintaining stability wherever it deployed.
Over the years, the fleet has distinguished itself in numerous campaigns, including anti-piracy operations in the Pyro system and humanitarian missions to aid war-torn colonies. Known as the “Sentinels of Stanton,” the 17th Expeditionary Fleet continues to uphold the ideals of the UEE while preparing for the challenges of an ever-expanding universe.
Today, the fleet stands as a beacon of hope and resilience, ready to defend the Empire and secure a brighter future for its citizens.
