General info

Squadron type: Elite Space Superiority
Craft used the most: GTF Erinyes
Stationed on-board: Unknown
Squadron leader: Lt. Commander Snipes (?)

Actions

The 99th Skulls appeared solely in two missions during the FreeSpace 2 campaign. From what there can be gathered, the 99th Skulls were an elite squadron, probably used by the SOC. They were among the first squadrons to use the GTF Erinyes and the UD-8 Kayser primary weapons.

It is logical, though not specifically stated, that Alpha 1 was flying with the 99th during SOC Loop 2.

Misc notes

The craft of this squadron were designated as Skull Alpha and Skull Beta in one of the FreeSpace 2 missions.
