Template:InfoBoxStateUnit The Capellan Defense Force was formed by Sun-Tzu Liao after the Fourth Succession War when the formerly secure Capellan Commonality became vulnerable to attack from the Federated Suns. Existing Capellan reserve regiments were renamed the Capellan Defense Force.

They share the common Confederation Crest and display a standard color scheme as well.

History

Fourth Succession War

The Defense Force performed poorly in the Liao-Marik Offensive of 3057 but redeemed itself during the St. Ives conflict where they foiled several counterattacks.

Jihad

The Capellan Defense Force was able to expand its rosters to include a third regiment shortly before the outbreak of the Jihad. Unfortunately the Third CDF was stationed on Gei-Fu, which was attacked by six AFFS units during Operation: Sovereign Justice. This destroyed the Third completely.[1]

Command Structure

Commander: Jiang-jun Dan Gun

He has command of both commands but his wish to expand his brigade is unlikely with the positioning of key units from the MAC and the Capellan Brigade.

Available Forces

The formation field some OmniMechs from the local Ceres Metal Industries plant and other new machines to. During the six month cicle which ended with an manuvers the unit have the opportunity to upgraded/repair their equipment. With the logistical network of CM the units can receive supplies in a short time period when needed. These capabilities could developed in wartimes in other commonalities too.

Though briefly expanded to include a third regiment, the CDF brigade was once again reduced to two regiments during the Jihad. Due to their timing and assignments, the CDF is one of the few CCAF units to come through the Jihad at full strength.[1]

Tactics

With the region of the Capellan Commonality once again safe from aggression the unit now specializes in rapid deployment in both offensive and defensive roles. It exit an agreement with the Capella War College with the goal to improve the battle readiness of the local militias.
