'''Sarek Squadron''' was a formation centred around the starship ''[[USS Sarek|Sarek]]'', a [[Sutherland Class|''Sutherland''-class]] heavy cruiser from 2400 to 2401.  It was under the command of Captain [[bfms_char:48362/|Taes]] of the USS ''Sarek''.  In a joint-mission of exploration with the [[Romulan Free State]], this squadron was assigned to explore the area of space known as the [[Typhon Frontier]], beyond the coreward borders of Federation space in the Beta Quadrant.  Sarek Squadron was assigned to [[Task Force 17]]'s deep space operations.  Given the limited tactical capacity of Sarek Squadron, their missions outside Federation space are short-term in nature, with periodic returns to [[Deep Space 17]] for re-staffing and re-supply.

== History ==
A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.
Sarek Squadron was first constituted by Task Force 17 command, in partnership with the [[Romulan Free State]], upon the commissioning of the USS ''Sarek'' in 2400. Operating out of [[Deep Space 17]], the squadron was primarily assigned to broaden the Federation's understanding of the anomalous mysteries of the Typhon Expanse and the frontier beyond.  As a mobile research platform with near-starbase capabilities in every scientific specialty, the USS ''Sarek'' was charged with reaching for the stars by solving imminent scientific mysteries, often amid humanitarian or diplomatic crises.  The USS ''Olympic'', by comparison, offered a venue for dialogue and competition between Starfleet and the Romulan Free State, by hosting scientific conferences, publishing the Olympic Journal, and serving as an escort and ferry to Romulan scientists crossing Federation space to explore the Typhon Frontier.
[[File:Sutherland class aft.png|left|thumb|USS Sarek]]
From the initial conception of its commissioning, Sarek Squadron was designed as one of Starfleet's great experiments to improve diplomatic relations with the Romulan Free State.  Inspired by the Federation and Bajor's partnership at Deep Space 9, the USS ''Sarek'' was launched with a team of seventy-five civilian scientists from the Romulan Free State permanently embedded in the ''Sarek''<nowiki/>'s science department.  The very first Chief Science Officer assigned to the USS ''Sarek'' was held by a Romulan Free State science minister, [[bfms_char:60485/|Flavia ir-Llantriant]].  Aboard the USS ''Olympic'', half of the science department was staffed by Romulan Free State scientists.  Although the Sarek Squadron was assigned scientific mysteries of great import, the real mission was for both crews to work as one.


Given the recognition of Captain Taes and Flavia ir-Llantrisant's combined expertise, they were granted joint oversight of Sarek Squadron's mission planning to make full use of the squadron's capacity.  The USS ''Sarek''<nowiki/>'s first mission was to mediate treaty negotiations between colonists on the planet Tenope in the Typhon Expanse and the sentient clay they discovered to be native to the planet. Sarek Squadron's second mission involved a short survey, completed by both the ''Sarek'' and ''Olympic'', of the dyson sphere that Starfleet first discovered in 2369.

====Captain's Ready Room====
The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the [[Raven Class]] is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.  


The USS Sarek went on to explore an abandoned Romulan Star Empire outpost on the planet Ullho in the Typhon Expanse. Early in their planetary survey, the USS ''Sarek'' was dispatched to the [[Delta Quadrant]] in support of the [[Blood Dilithium]] campaign.  Upon the USS ''Sarek's'' return to the beta quadrant, Captain Taes began an exploration of the Typhon Expanse to understand strange changes in the energy output of the spatial anomalies across that area of space. In that time, the ''Sarek'' rescued a lost Starfleet crew from a temporal vortex and protected a pair of gormaganders, whose migratory patterns had been impacted by increases in solar winds.
The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.


Meanwhile, the USS ''Olympic'' returned to Ullho to to complete the ''Sarek's'' abandoned planetary survey; however they were attacked by an unknown assailant.  Protected by a Romulan Free State warpbird, the ''Olympic'' was escorted back to Federation space.

Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.


By early 2401, Starfleet command abruptly changed the commanding officers of both the USS ''Sarek'' and the USS ''Olympic'' amid the [[Dominion]] invasion of the [[Deneb Sector]] and the [https://bravofleet.com/mission/84015/ Changeling infiltration] of Starfleet.  Sarek Squadron was disbanded.

Missions

Start-Up Problems - 2393

A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.

Ship's Tour

Captain's Ready Room

The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the Raven Class is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.

The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.

On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.

Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs.

The Observation Lounge

At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table. In the middle of the table, you will find a holographic 3D device that can project any ship, planet, or astronomical object shown during a mission briefing.

On the wall, there are paintings of various famous exploration ships. One of those is the USS Enterprise. On the other side, you will find big windows that show the back of the ship and a great view of space itself. It is said that Ensign T'path was mostly found here, as it brought her calmness while practicing her Vulcan meditation. While on the floor before the window, you will find a classic earth-designed carpet with that dark red color.

Back at the entree on the right, you will find a corner for one person to sit and relax. Dr. Ruslanovna has the hobby of creating something of every mission in the form of a beautiful painting. It is in this corner that these small paintings are hanging.

Main Engineering

From deck 1 to 3 you will find in the middle of the ship the heart of all its power, the main engineering. When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment.
