These squadrons are nearly uniform in composition, yet field an odd assortment of craft contributed from local shipyards at a variety of technology levels. Each planet capable of building ships or military craft of any type are commissioned and awarded defense contracts to build the best designs they can manage with their local resources and industrial-military abilities.
