Task Force Omega

**Task Force Omega**, often referred to as **Omega Force**, was a specialized combat unit organized in the early 25th century to combat the Borg Collective. It was the brainchild of Admiral D'Vak, who received permission and resources from Starfleet Command and Klingon High Command to organize the fleet. Omega Force technically operated outside the structure of Starfleet and the Klingon Defense Force and was the first joint effort between the two factions since the collapse of the Khitomer Accords at the end of the 24th century.

## History

In early 2409, Starfleet detected renewed incursions from the Borg Collective. Rear Admiral D'Vak, concerned that this could lead to another Borg invasion, proposed to Starfleet Command that a task force be created to counter the threat. They approved the plan and granted permission for him to approach the Klingon Empire for assistance. The Federation’s war with the Empire had entered a lull and officials hoped that a joint endeavor to combat a threat like the Collective would lead to a truce.

The Klingon High Council rejected D'Vak's request, but Chancellor J'mpok sidestepped them and offered the Honor Guard to join the task force.

Omega Force was rather active in its first year, deterring several Collective attempts to gain a foothold in the Beta Quadrant. Once a pathway opened to the Delta Quadrant via the Solanae and Jenolan Dyson Spheres, D’Vak led the task force on the offensive into Collective space.

After the close of the Iconian War, Admiral D'Vak took Omega Force on a tour of the Beta and Delta Quadrants.

## Equipment and uniforms

Personnel in Task Force Omega did not have unique uniforms and wore those from their native service.

To assist in their efforts against the Collective, specialized field equipment and starship systems was developed, some of which were derived from Borg technologies.

### Ground equipment

The Omega Force armor provided some protection from energy, kinetic, and physical damage and carried an integrated reflex-enhancing shield.

Two different autocarbines were developed for use by task force personnel. One used antiprotons while the other made use of tetryons, but both made use of advanced frequency remodulators. This allowed the armaments to quickly overcome Borg adaptations to the directed energy fire.

### Starship equipment

Several ship systems were adapted from Collective technology captured over the years and retrofitted to vessels assigned to Omega Force.

The two armaments were a kinetic cutting beam and a powerful plasma torpedo.
