The Hellcat Squadron is a former UED Expeditionary Force element during the Brood War. Like their compatriots from Spartan Company, they became mercenaries operating customized Valkyries. Hellcat Squadron is often hired out by fringe worlds, cargo companies, and space platforms for escort and patrol missions against pirate raiders and alien invasions. Rivals to the Dusk Wings, they are often at odds for contracts outside Dominion space.
