Tactical Armored Space Corps O.C.C. (Veritech Fighter)

brave the rigors of space in their deadly Veritechs with a smirk or a smart-aleck
most part, hardworking and driven professionals who take their service seriously.  They fly the vaunted VF-8 Logan Variable Fighter and VFH-10B Ajax Variable Strike Copter. Most are stationed in orbit aboard ships or on space stations, but there are a few TASC squadrons based planet-side, where they enjoy a spirited professional rivalry with their colleagues in the Tactical Air Force(TAF).
  The TASC is not comprised of only Veritech pilots however, they also fly and crew the many sub-capital and capital ships of the ASC. They serve aboard ships like the Tri-Star class carrier and the takeaway class battleships, as well as the many Tran atmospheric shuttle-craft in the Army.  Their training is rigorous and both physically and mentally challenging.  Fighting and navigating in space is a tricky proposition, and only the best of the best are allowed access to the powerful and expensive Veritech Fighters.
