The '''Third Imperial Fleet''' (3IF) is one of three active service fleets deployed by the [[Galactic Empire]].  The 3rd Fleet's area of responsibility is the [[Ruby Region]], comprised of both the [[Tapani Oversector]] and [[Corellian Oversector]].  The Corellian Trade Spine, one of the galaxy's largest trading lanes passing through this Region, is of critical importance to the economic health of the Empire and business enterprises located in the Core Worlds.  It is of particular importance to the 3rd Fleet's [[8th Assault Group]], whose Regional Headquarters are located in the Corellia system.

First formed after the Navy Restructuring on Year 12 Day 221 under the command of Commodore [[Arya Downing]] by the merging of the original 4th and 8th Imperial fleets, which were re-organised into the [[4th Recon Group]] commanded by Commander [[Galdarzz Aalon]], and the [[8th Assault Group]] commanded by Captain [[Khaleon Hope]].

==History==
 
==History==
−
The 3IF was founded in Year 12 Day 221 by order of Emperor Thomas Cherokee, and in compliance with the Navy Restructuring Act, which saw the re-designation of the 4th and 8th Imperial Fleets into Groups and their merger into the 3rd Imperial Fleet.  In Year 15, the 4th Recon Group was disbanded following further force shaping and in Year 17, the [[3rd Recon Group]] (formerly the 3rd Imperial Fleet, pre-Y12) was re-assigned to the 3IF, uniting both legacies under a single banner.
 
  
−
===Operation Swiftsure===
+
The 3IF was formed as the 2nd Imperial Fleet during Year 12 with pilots and officers from other units that all came together to hold the ground and maintain the tradition of [[Imperial Navy]] excellence. The vast stretches of the Kuat Sector and the lives and well-being of the Imperial citizens calling it home required some of the most skilled pilots the Empire had to offer. Out of this need the former Second Fleet was born.
−
While under the command of Admiral [[Mordus Nordstroem]], elements of the 3rd Fleet were among the first to arrive in the newly discovered Hosnian system and were present throughout the entirety of Operation Swiftsure.  Reconnaissance and world-building assets/officers were deployed across multiple planets - focusing on Raysho, Cardota, and Hosnian Prime - allowing for advance enemy detection and system-wide intelligence which contributed to the early stages of the "build war" efforts and lasted throughout the Imperial campaign.
 
  
−
===Operation Reditus===
+
In Year 22, following the new Military Restructure under Emperor [[Seele]], the 2nd Imperial Fleet was re-designated to the 3rd Imperial Fleet.
−
Also referred to as the "CorSec Debacle", Reditus saw the 3rd Fleet embroiled in conflict in the Corellian Sector across multiple systems in the wake of former CorSec Grand Marshall Neria Derycke's betrayal of the Empire.

The 1st Group functioned as an assault unit stationed at the [[Kuat Oversector]]. This group was merged into the 2nd Group on day 214 of year 15, to maximize the fleet effectiveness and promote group interaction. After 2 years, on Year 17 Day 263, it was reactivated as an assault group, receiving a full personnel transfer from the previous mentioned 2nd Group. The 1st remained as such until Year 20, when it was finally incorporated into the 7th Group.

Woe befell the beast that infringed on the peace of the denizens of Greater Tapani.  It intended to devour that one morsel that it believed was unguarded by the Loyal.  One foot in quicksand, it ignored the TIE Starfighters and quested toward its objective.  Two feet in quicksand, it found a worthy adversary, a Star Destroyer!  So it came on, to end this quickly...  Three feet in quicksand, it found itself attacked by a Carrack Cruiser, making this unexpectedly complicated.  Four feet in quicksand and doomed to perish, it found itself beset by yet another squadron of TIE Starfighters.  Teamwork will prevail...

Join the Imperial Knights, the most fiercely coherent group of officers you will find in the Imperial Navy, and examine your surroundings closely.  Abregado System space looks crowded to you, does it not?  It certainly should!  The shipyards here require vast resources if they are to realise their high capacity.  Behold how the tractor beams even now gather the debris of ancient battles together so it can be utilised again for a masterful purpose.  Greater Tapani could ask for no finer naval capital.  From here was directed Operation Sundered Anarchy, the pacification of Loedorvia System in the Weemell Sector.  Many veterans of Sundered Anarchy serve here still, but they do not rest on their laurels.  Instead, the 3rd Group aggressively looks to the future in always developing their personnel, their fitness, and their expertise.  Everyone is taught to watch each others' back, and this policy has helped to keep casualties lower than many other organisations, whether Navy or Army, and certainly lower than the enemies of the Empire who have the misfortune to come across our path. We shall relentlessly confront them in combat and bear down heavy fire-power to destroy them!

The 2nd Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed at the [[Kuat Oversector]]. This group remained active until Year 17 Day 263, when it was rotated into the reserves, with all its personnel transferring into the newly activated 1st Group.

Our officers are known for their grasp of the lessons of history, their professional work ethic, and their reputation for tenacity.  Advancement is always on offer for one who serves meritoriously in our ranks -- whether greater wealth, greater inherent personal capability, or greater official importance.  The 3rd Group could be a pathway to command of the entire Imperial Navy or even the throne of the Galactic Empire.  It has happened before!

===6th Group===

Frater Totus "Brothers All" -- By this motto, we welcome our newest members, no less than our oldest, and help them to realise their destiny as potent guardians of the New Order.

The 6th Group functioned as a unit stationed at the [[Corporate Oversector]]. It was originally formed on Year 8 Day 276, as the 6th Imperial Fleet. After the merger of the Galactic Empire and the New Imperial Order, they were assigned to Corporate Sector where they served as the backbone of the Empire's defenses of its far flung oversector. Re-designated during the Year 12 reforms as 6th Group, the Group joined the 7th and 12th Groups to form the 6th Imperial Fleet. On Year 17 Day 200 it was transferred to the 2nd Imperial Fleet, where it served until its deactivation around Year 18.

The 7th Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed at the [[Corporate Oversector]]. It was originally formed during the Naval reforms of Year 9 as the 7th Imperial Fleet, a special operations fleet allocated at the [[Corellian Sector]]. Following the unification of the Galactic Empire and the New Imperial Order, the 7th Fleet was reassigned to the outlying Corporate Oversector. During the reforms on Year 12 the 7th Fleet was renamed to the 7th Group, joining the newly-formed 6th Group as part of the 6th Imperial Fleet, gaining a focus on reconnaissance. Eventually the 7th Group was moved into the Reserves, its expertise being dispersed into 6th Group to better support the fleet as a whole.

The Eighth Group of the Third Imperial Fleet. A deadly combination of extreme firepower, the likes of which few in the Galaxy could ever hope to challenge, with the highly skilled and unpredictable pilots the Third Fleet is known for. A combination considered by many more cautious officers to be a potentially volatile mixture. Yet in the hands of seasoned commanders this potent mix results in a group capable of feats others would deem impossible. A group relentless on the offence, insurmountable in defence, respected by both friend and by foe yet whose tactics often remain a mystery to both. Though able to perform standard Imperial manoeuvres to the letter, their true capabilities are revealed in how they use their ships in a manner few would imagine possible, and even fewer can imagine how to defend against.

Responsible for preventing disruption of the Corellian sectors significant and vital industrial capacity the Eighth group is used to standing firm against the enemy. The key element in the wide array of defences preventing any harm falling to the Corellian people, their numerous shipyards or their vast network of factories. Allowing them to fuel the Imperial economy and expand the resources of the Imperial military unhindered by the criminal or rebel elements to which they are a prime target. The Eighth Group is constantly aware of the consequences to the Empire as a whole if the supply of ships and material is interrupted, or worse, co-opted by the Empires enemies. The Eighth Group is constantly at work to prevent any such occurrence.

Tasked with keeping a keen and watchful eye on the mysterious and poorly understood Centrepoint station, constantly aware of the threat its unknown power could pose if ever awoken. Prepared to take whatever action is necessary to ensure it continues to bring wealth into the sector as the hub of galactic trade it has grown to be, and only as that hub. Patrolling Eighth Group Star Destroyers, TIE fighter and TIE Bomber squadrons act as a stoic reminder to the stations occupants that the Empire extends a sheltering hand to legitimate trade. An iron fist should anyone reach too far and threaten the stability of Imperial territory.

When entrusted with the protection of a Sector so sure to demand everything even they can give being capable of achieving the impossible is the only option. For the Eighth Group it is more than simply their duty to bring a time of peace and prosperity to a sector that has seen upheaval and war for too much of its history. It has become their very nature to provide such a symbol of hope and strength that even the most fiercely independent of Corellian factions can rest easy knowing their fate is well cared for in Imperial hands. To be a symbol that every Corellian can have pride in as an example of what they can achieve in co-operation with the Empire.

==Origin of Fleet Motto==
+
{{TopMenu}}  
−
The Third Fleet's motto, ''"'''The Third Will Prevail'''"'', was established in Year 19 Day 228 by then 3rd Fleet Commanding Officer, Admiral Mordus Nordstroem.  During a presentation in front of assembled officers from across the Imperial Navy, and in reference to the events surrounding the discovery of the Hosnian system, Admiral Nordstroem first spoke the words:
 
−
 
 
−
''"To the terrorists of Zann, I say this: Your time is coming.  The Third will see your filth eradicated from Imperial space.  Your worlds will be freed.  Your ships will burn.  Your associates will be in chains.  I will see it done.  The Third will prevail."''
 
−
 
 
−
From there, officers of the 3rd Fleet took on the motto as both an affirmation of their promise to the Emperor and as a threat to all who would stand in their way.

The Third Imperial Fleet (3IF) is one of three active service fleets deployed by the Galactic Empire. The 3rd Fleet's area of responsibility is the Amber Region, comprised of the Corporate Oversector. Its Regional Headquarters are located in the Dromund system.

The 3rd Fleet is currently commanded by Rear Admiral Garret Vin-Reth.

History

The 3IF was formed as the 2nd Imperial Fleet during Year 12 with pilots and officers from other units that all came together to hold the ground and maintain the tradition of Imperial Navy excellence. The vast stretches of the Kuat Sector and the lives and well-being of the Imperial citizens calling it home required some of the most skilled pilots the Empire had to offer. Out of this need the former Second Fleet was born.

In Year 22, following the new Military Restructure under Emperor Seele, the 2nd Imperial Fleet was re-designated to the 3rd Imperial Fleet.

Joint Task Force 22

A joint Fleet and Army military action that occurred in Year 16. The details are marked *Secret/Classified*.

Joint Task Force Delta

In Year 21, the Joint Task Force Delta engaged enemy forces in an event that became known as the Battle of Korriz I.

Former Component Units

The former 2nd Imperial Fleet was composed of several subordinate groups prior to the Year 22 Military Restructuring, when the group structure was abolished. This section briefly describe each of these former groups in terms of their roles, history and the sector where it was stationed.

1st Group

The 1st Group functioned as an assault unit stationed at the Kuat Oversector. This group was merged into the 2nd Group on day 214 of year 15, to maximize the fleet effectiveness and promote group interaction. After 2 years, on Year 17 Day 263, it was reactivated as an assault group, receiving a full personnel transfer from the previous mentioned 2nd Group. The 1st remained as such until Year 20, when it was finally incorporated into the 7th Group.

2nd Group

The 2nd Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed at the Kuat Oversector. This group remained active until Year 17 Day 263, when it was rotated into the reserves, with all its personnel transferring into the newly activated 1st Group.

6th Group

The 6th Group functioned as a unit stationed at the Corporate Oversector. It was originally formed on Year 8 Day 276, as the 6th Imperial Fleet. After the merger of the Galactic Empire and the New Imperial Order, they were assigned to Corporate Sector where they served as the backbone of the Empire's defenses of its far flung oversector. Re-designated during the Year 12 reforms as 6th Group, the Group joined the 7th and 12th Groups to form the 6th Imperial Fleet. On Year 17 Day 200 it was transferred to the 2nd Imperial Fleet, where it served until its deactivation around Year 18.

7th Group

The 7th Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed at the Corporate Oversector. It was originally formed during the Naval reforms of Year 9 as the 7th Imperial Fleet, a special operations fleet allocated at the Corellian Sector. Following the unification of the Galactic Empire and the New Imperial Order, the 7th Fleet was reassigned to the outlying Corporate Oversector. During the reforms on Year 12 the 7th Fleet was renamed to the 7th Group, joining the newly-formed 6th Group as part of the 6th Imperial Fleet, gaining a focus on reconnaissance. Eventually the 7th Group was moved into the Reserves, its expertise being dispersed into 6th Group to better support the fleet as a whole.

Later, the 7th Group was reactivated under the auspices of the 2nd Imperial Fleet and once more assigned to protect the remote Corporate Oversector. Following the new Military Restructure during Year 22, the group structure was abolished and the 7th deactivated.
