The Second Imperial Fleet (2IF) is one of three active service fleets deployed by the Galactic Empire. The 2nd 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 2nd Fleet, 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.
The 2nd Fleet is currently commanded by Commodore Ryn Tavel.

History
The 2IF 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.
In Year 22, following the new Military Restructure under Emperor Seele, the 3rd Imperial Fleet was re-designated to the 2nd Imperial Fleet.
Operation Swiftsure
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
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.
Corellian Gold
An operation to eliminate a criminal collective known as the "United Front" attempting to capitalize on setbacks experienced by the Empire following both Operations Swiftsure and Reditus. Warships of the 8th Assault Group first engaged UF forces in orbit of Botor in the Botor Enclave Sector in which two enemy capital ships were destroyed along with numerous fighter craft - with both Imperial warships sustaining only minor damage - and a third enemy capital ship put into retreat. The arrival of the Imperial Star Destroyer [REDACTED] cemented the 3rd Fleet's victory over Botor and allowed 3rd Brigade ground forces to lay siege to a UF installation following a brief battle between their remaining fighter defenders and the 8th Group's INSC detachment.
Former Component Units
The former 3rd 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.
3rd Group
The 3rd Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed in the Tapani Oversector. Formerly known as the Third Imperial Fleet until Year 12, it was reactivated as the 3rd Group during Year 17.
8th Group
The 8th Group functioned as an assault unit stationed in the Corellian Oversector. This unit was formed during the Navy Restructuring on Day 221 of Year 12, where original 8th Imperial Fleet was re-organised into the 8th Assault Group. Following the new Military Restructure during Year 22, the group structure was abolished and the 8th deactivated.
4th Group
The 4th Group functioned as a reconnaissance unit stationed in the Corellian Oversector. This unit was formed during the Navy Restructuring on Day 221 of Year 12, where the original 4th Imperial Fleet was re-organised into the 4th Recon Group. It was deactivated during Year 15.
