History

Star League Era

The Free Worlds League Navy First Fleet was one of five WarShip formations operated by the FWLN at the height of the Star League era, and as with the other four FWLN fleets, was the designated fleet for one of the five military districts within the Free Worlds League. The First Fleet was responsible for patrolling the League's border with the Terran Hegemony, and anchored at the Technicron Manufacturing shipyards in the Savannah system. Like the Fifth Fleet, the First Fleet had seen relatively little combat in the decade leading up to 2765.[1]

As with the other FWLN fleets, the destruction of the League-class destroyer FWLS Albert Marik in a brief engagement with a flotilla from the Star League Defense Force Seventh Fleet in the Calloway system in 2763 had had a profound effect on the personnel of the First Fleet, with operations being conducted with textbook precision and response times improving.[1]

Composition History

2765

The Free Worlds League Navy consisted of five fleet groups, with each fleet assigned to a League military district. Each fleet consisted of four Atreus-class battleships, one Aegis-class heavy cruiser, and two League-class destroyers. Other WarShips, JumpShips, and DropShips were assigned to each fleet as needed.[1]

In 2765 the flagship of the First Fleet was the FWLS Atreus.[1]
