Modus Operandi
The Naval Intelligence Division, or NID, is headquartered at Juneau shipyard. The division is primarily tasked with scouting, interception, and any required intelligence-gathering. This is first and foremost within the borders of the Republic of Liberty, although NID assets have been known to venture further afield. Generally, NID ships work without support; however, they can use Main Fleet squadrons to support them when required. Regarding mission security, It is imperative to retain plausible deniability for Officers assigned to the division. As such, the Admiralty has implemented a squadron integration program Fleet-wide that sees Main Fleet squadrons brought into the basic level of anonymity NID requires for its standard duties. This way, NID squadron assets can operate alongside the Main Fleet as interceptor units or forward reconnoiters to scout for contacts during normal operations. Likewise, Main Fleet squadrons may directly support NID squadron assets if required during classified intelligence operations.
Operational Capabilities
The above gives a pretty key indicator as to the general purpose of the Naval Intelligence Division. However, the division uses the following special operational equipment: The general premise is to have NID-designated fighters dock to a Carrier, jump into a system, and deploy. Track, scan, gather intelligence, return to the Carrier, and jump out. Depending on mission progress or potential complications, tactics are generally adapted in the field.
