ASTRAL READY GROUP


Astral Operations are the Space to Surface transport and support of Troops, Equipment and supplies during Tactical or Combat conditions.   Because this is usually the first and last stage of any surface action all Astral Operations fall under the GROUND OPS COMMAND umbrella.   Even FLEET personnel staffed to operate the Astral Vehicles report to the GROUND OPERATIONS Astral Division.

Although mission expectations and field commander preferences can alter the make-up of an ASTRAL READY GROUP the standard complement of an ASTRAL READY GROUP usually consists of the following:
