The **Global Defense Agency (G.D.A)** is a secret multinational intergovernmental organization in charge of protecting the Earth and monitoring superpowered individuals. They often employ superheroes and sponsor the Guardians of the Globe. They're currently being run by Cecil Stedman.

## Background

The Global Defense Agency is primarily funded and staffed by the United States of America. Yet, the organization's reach is not constrained to any defined nation or borders. With assets across the globe the G.D.A. is capable of striking targets from Space to Atlantis.

In order to accomplish the task of containing threats, monitoring and supervising supernatural and superpowered individuals, and maintaining the Earth's safety the G.D.A. possesses numerous facilities and vehicles. The organization utilizes enhanced equipment (some of questionable ethical origin) in order to supplement or substitute the abilities of superheroes.

The resources and equipment of the G.D.A. are vast. The gigantic operation mostly conducted beneath The Pentagon is likely to result in a gigantic budget. This is put to good use as humanity is protected from the numerous threats from and beyond Earth. Unfortunately when faced with threats such as Viltrumites even a bottomless defense budget isn't effective. The Hammer, an orbital satellite equipped with an extremely powerful beam laser had only given Omni-Man a nosebleed while exhausting $400 Billion dollars.

In some cases, if the troops are unable to withstand Viltrumite, like opponents, the director, will use more defensive means of accomplishing the goals of safeguarding the earth.

## Notable Operations

### Mister Liu Attack

In Italy, Omni-Man flew his wife Debbie Grayson for vacation. As they are conversing, a dragon appeared spewing flames across the city. Debbie urges Nolan to act, but he refuses to saying, "Let Cecil earn his paycheck..." Moments afterwards, 3 jets presumably launched by the order of Cecil fly in formation towards the dragon. 3 Missiles are launched and puts an end to the flame dragon's rampage.

## Special Equipment

* Stealth-Armor (Utilized by G.D.A. agents to ambush targets)
* Teleportation (Used by Cecil to attempt to converse with a compromised Omni-Man)
* Hover Stretchers (Floating stretchers used transport wounded people)
* Drones (Used for reconnaissance and long-distance communication)

## Special Weapons

* **The Hammer**: An orbital satellite that is equipped to fire laser beams that are capable of eviscerating anything in its target. It cost around $400 billion and was destroyed by Omni-Man.
* **Cecil's Y-Blaster**: A modified plasma rifle, originated from the Flaxans.
* **ReAnimen**: Former humans who have been altered to create mechanical beings with extraordinary strength and speed. They were used after D.A. Sinclair was apprehended by Invincible.
* **Hail Mary**: A Kaiju that was able to make Omni-Man struggle, saved for insanely strong enemies.
* ***Demonius Ex Mortem***: Roughly translated to "*demon out of death*", an ancient tome used to banish Damien Darkblood back to hell.
* **Supersonic Sound Frequencies**: Equipment taken from the shrieks of an underwater creature, meant for Viltrumite-like enemies.

## Vehicles

The Global Defense Agency utilizes numerous types of vehicles in order to accomplish its goals. If a superhero or the Guardians of the Globe are present, the G.D.A. provide support in order to supplement their abilities. In cases that superheroes are not available or unwilling to act, it is often G.D.A. units that contain the situation.

###### Ground

* APC (Stationed at the white house in case of another attack)

###### Air

* G.D.A. Helicopters (Lightly armed transport helos)
* G.D.A. Vtols (Utilized by rapid-response agents to deal with threats)
* G.D.A. Jets (Rapid-response strike aircraft)
* Lockheed Martin F-16 Falcons (Seen as escorts for Omni-Man's speech)
* Unnamed VTOL Aircrafts (Presumably to transport teams of agents)
