Nova Squadron was a Terran Confederacy military organization. It was numerically inferior to other wings of the Terran Confederacy forces, but its units are well-trained, much like those of the Alpha Squadron. Its main purpose was to spy on other organizations, including other Terran Confederacy Squadrons. The Squadron's leader is Colonel Jackson Hauler and its game color is purple.^[1]

[edit] History

The following section contains information from a previous version of StarCraft that is ambiguously canonical.

Nova Squadron appeared in Operation Silent Scream in StarCraft, which is generally not considered canon.

Before activating the psi-emitters over Tarsonis, Arcturus Mengsk sent the Sons of Korhal down to the surface of Tarsonis in order to disrupt the ability of Nova Squadron, Delta Squadron and Omega Squadron to wage war. They were successful in this regard.^[2]

[edit] The Escape

Nova Squadron was forced to abandon its headquarters, Nova Station, in order to go into hiding. The headquarters were later retrieved by Dominion General Edmund Duke.^[3]

[edit] StarCraft: Ghost

	This article or section contains information about StarCraft: Ghost. The content may be significantly out of date. Please do not add speculation to this article, and remember to cite a published source for details.

Nova Squadron was eventually brought under the power of the Terran Dominion and is at least nominally under its control.^[4]
