 As far as the Navy and its role as a part of [[GalCop]], I was careful in my OXP to rarely if ever use the term GalCop to describe anything Navy. It's my belief, and probably entirely my own, that due to its largely independent nature already, the Galactic Navy eventually, sometime in the future, breaks away from GalCop and becomes its own entity. Perhaps this was one cause of GalCop's eventual downfall. Who knows, its all just future story line in my head that doesn't actual effect the game right now. Right now GalCop is the force in the Galaxy and controls everything we do to the best of their abilities.

 ''Note that at this early stage in the development of Oolite, the Oolite community mostly followed the syncretist approach to [[Lore]], placing Oolite between Classic Elite and Frontier historically, which meant that GalCop was doomed and the incipient Federation & Empire needed to be accounted for.''

   Turned around and headed back to take out the last Battleship (my squadmates and escorts had taken out one, losing an Asp and the Mark I in the process). We destroyed it, with effort and determination and no finesse whatsoever, and turned to finish off the last few Thargs - a Cruiser and an Invader, plus their fighter complement. The Invader goes down fast. The Cruiser was more of a challenge, especially since my comrades started missing all the time, it was targeting me exclusively, and cumulative battle damage had left me near destruction. I kept firing anyway, as it whittled away at my shields and energy banks. Right before my energy banks reached zero, I ejected. As the pod flew away I saw the cruiser explode (although I wasn't credited with the kill as I didn't fire the final shot). Annoyingly, the ship I ejected from survived, which means some human colonial in an escape pod got a free Cobra Mark II-X.

 ===Overview===
 The Galactic Navy OXP introduces a more visible [[Galactic_Navy|Galactic Navy]] presence to the Ooniverse.  Each galaxy now contains 14 individual Sector Commands with base systems and stations.  There are several new navy ships and navy patrols including  [[Navy_Carrier_Group|Navy Carrier Groups]], frigate patrols, and convoys.  Once docked at SecCom stations players have a variety of options to choose from including Navy Reserve missions.<br><br>
