Department 6: Counter Intelligence
Field Force Command
The Field Force Command is responsible for the active measures, to bring down the enemy of the state. They co-operate with the sister command on the Department 5: Intelligence, but their jurisdiction does not exceed the borders of the Federation. Most of the members of the outfit is active members of the military, and has made missions for their respective departments. The exact number of operatives are a well guarded secret, but an intelligent guess would be around 20operatives at one time.
They are much smaller than their cousins at OP:5, but then again, those operatives are working in a more stand-alone mode. The Field Force Command from OP:6 has far more resources at their disposal. They can call on any of the security or military resource they has the need for, provided that their identity can be verified. For that purpose, they have a special high-security passcard/credstick that ensure their authenticity.
The native resources of the Force is high in itself. Most of the operatives use the highest possible level of Cyberware enhancements, and Bioware. Their high training in various subterfuge skills, and other useful areas of knowledge let them blend in, and infiltrate the organisations of the enemy of the state, so they can disable the organisation from the inside. Various cosmetic alterations give them the opportunity to be used in similar organisation infiltration, with minimal risk.
Their prime objective is to take out an organisation that could be a threat, before it has reached that potential. The need to bring down all the leaders, often let the infiltrating operatives to go along, and perform minor actions that is harmful to the state. sometimes, they support units of opposing organisations, just to let them do the battle, and then take out the victors with less effort.
Organisation:
The current Commanding Officer of the Field Force is the Naval Officer, Captain Jacob Johan Ancarström. He has been involved in many operations, both as a member of the OP:5, and OP:6. He is also Commands a Frigate, the HMS Tre Kronor, when not involved with Intelligence matters. His Deputy is the Airforce pilot, Lieutenant Colonel Tryggve Brattli. He flies an Airforce JAS - 44 "Nattskärran" when not involved in other activities.
The most common unit of the Field Force is a two-man team. Only in greater organisations is the need for more personnel important. Should the need arise for more overt violence, then the regular police or military force come into play.
A termination order can only be issued from the military council, and is often carried out by one operative, with a stand-alone backup. Such orders will be carried out with the most effective use of force, sometimes as an accident, but as often as a public display. The death of an operative by an enemy often results in the utter destruction of the said enemy, and in some cases, their closest relatives. This is to deter from retaliatory actions against an operative.
Rogue operatives are swiftly taken care of by their own unit, and to this day, only a single such situation has happened. The rogue was terminated with a strike team, three days after being declared a rogue. By that time he had been able to disrupt the security systems on many military installations along the coast north of Trondheim. The reasons for that action died with the Naval Lieutenant that caused the problems.
