Endeavour Squadron is a formation centered around the starship Endeavour, an Obena-class explorer. It is currently under the command of Fleet Captain Lionel Jericho of the USS Triumph. The squadron is currently assigned to the rimward Federation border with the Romulan Factions, tackling the many challenges of this difficult region. The squadron is assigned directly to Fourth Fleet Operations and not one of the fleet's task forces, though is often favoured by Director of Fourth Fleet Intelligence Vice Admiral Alexander Beckett for special assignments.

The squadron's primary mission is to restore stability in this chaotic region. While Endeavour's historic mission of diplomacy stands, the squadron's formation under Fleet Captain Jericho demonstrates how seriously Starfleet takes the border's security. The group is directed to cooperate with friendly local factions and build in-roads with others, and the Federation remains intent on helping the dispossessed of the Romulan territories becoming self-sufficient and self-governing. Likewise, the assignment of the USS Pathfinder allows the squadron to pursue opportunities for exploration and scientific discovery opened up by the changes in governments and potential research agreements with new allies. But the region is not without its threats: the influence of the Romulan Free State and the Tal Shiar, the ambitions of smaller, volatile Romulan factions, the raiding of local pirate and criminal elements, and the renewed manipulations of the renegade House of Mo'Kai, keen to exploit the chaos for their own interests.

Composition

USS Endeavour - Odyssey-class explorer
- While Fleet Captain Jericho of the Triumph commands the squadron, Endeavour's capabilities keep her at the heart of operations, group missions revolving around her. She is a strong diplomatic platform and well-equipped to provide humanitarian aid as much as she is tactically powerful.
USS Triumph - Inquiry-class heavy cruiser
- The Triumph has served for years in significant tactical hot-spots around the quadrant. Fleet Captain Jericho leads the squadron from his ship, which has a primary focus of protecting the diplomatic mission and taking point on any security threats.
USS Pathfinder - Pathfinder-class long-range science vessel
- Pathfinder is charged with the squadron's scientific operations, and so usually operates independently.
USS Nighthawk - Reliant-class frigate
