The 101st Escort Squadron was the second escort unit to reinforce Battlegroup Fortitas, after the 302nd. The squadron's table of organization calls for 4 ships divided into two wings of two. Theta Wing uses the insignia above on the left, and Delta Wing uses the insignia on the right. The Cobra class escort is one of the fastest and most maneuverable ships in all of the Imperial Navy. And, with its strength 2 torpedo armament, they pack quite a punch as well. These qualities make the 101st a welcome addition to Battlegroup Fortitas.
