The origin of the squadron’s nom de guerre is shrouded in some confusion.

| - The origin of the squadron’s nom de guerre is shrouded in some confusion. Modern Black Crow pilots and their supporters claim that the name refers to the squadron’s cleverness and penchant for vengeance (Earth crows, now found on over a dozen worlds, are capable of remembering and attacking offending Human faces for years). Historians say that the truth is somewhat less valorous. The squadron was originally known as “Branton’s Braggarts,” a humorous reference to the unit’s overly-vocal pride over achieving the first perfect score in a HARD+ rated simulated bombing run under their first commanding officer, Captain Charlotte Branton. Fed up with the squadron’s braggadocio, ground crews began painting black birds on their spacecraft to show their distaste for 214’s ‘constant cawing.’ By the time Squadron 214 went into action, they were the Black Crows. Today, 214 is an exclusively carrier-based squadron assigned two flights of Hornet, one flight of Gladius interceptors and an elite flight of Gladiator light bombers, though it is worth noting that one of the Hornet flights is currently inactive as its flight crews undergo transition training for the upcoming F8 Lightning space superiority fighter. The Black Crow’s bomber flights have flown every single-engine bomber in the UEEN arsenal, from the original Typhoon dive bombers to today’s craft, where 214’s illustrious Bravo Flight are using the Anvil Gladiator to further solidify their hard-earned reputation as one of the best bomber units actively operating.
