| − | Commanded from the Star Destroyer ''[[Horizon]]'', '''Task Force 75''' is an independently operating Task Group within the Fourth Fleet of the [[Alliance Navy]]. It was established under Commodore [[Vansen Tyree]] with the purpose of causing as much trouble to Imperial shipping along the Perlemian Trade Route as possible, in particular creating problems for shipments into and out of the Corporate Sector: with the emergence of [[The Independents]], and their seizing control of the rimward arm of the Hydian Way, the Perlemian Trade Route has become the sole "save" supply route out of the Sector.
