Overview

This division within the Federation served as the military intelligence agency of the Federal States of America. It was mandated with the protection of the FSA from threats that were either domestic or foreign. They were the original developers of military-grade bionic technology which was put to use on their agents. After the initial conflict with the Imperial Army, a number of bionic enhanced commandos were activated to deal with the threat. Despite their early successes, the use of cybernetic bionics was a source of controversy.

The members of this committee were one of the most powerful individuals in the FSA government in its early days. The organization was crucial and at the height of its power had at its disposal a team of bionically enhanced Special Ops commanos that were considered the finest in the world. The TASC suffered greatly from the Bionic Prohibition Act and after President Allen executed the Act, the TASCs military capabilities were almost entirely stripped. Whilst they have recovered from the blow, the organization was still a shadow of its former glory. As such, their power and influence had waned but were still quite a powerful body within the government save for the office of the President. The Tactical Arms and Security Committee was led by a Director.

What followed was the Bionic Purge which was instituted after a number of opponents to bionics were assassinated by rogue bionics. The T.A.S.C. was not forced to send it teams to apprehend their own bionic forces. Some bionic enhanced commandos had their implants removed which killed several of them though many had fled underground.

Divisions

TASC Research and Development

This body was responsible for the creation of the bionic technology such as the Bionic Arm and created the first Bionic Commando with its official test subject of the military grade bionic technology being Nathan Spencer. After his enhancement, he was transferred from the R&D division to the Special Ops division.

TASC Special Ops

The Special Ops division was a military intelligence unit that consisted of bionic enhanced operatives. As a result of the presidential investigation that found bionics being responsible for an assassination attempt, the members of the Special Ops were hunted down by their makers. However, many fled underground where they formed the Bionic Resurrection Initiative which worked to fight the non-enhanced human forces.
