'''Task Force Talon''' is a military unit that featured in [[Act of War]]. ==Background== Task Force Talon was an elite military unit that was formed from the best of all branches of the US military. They were equipped with the most moderna s well as high tech equipment that was available. This included highly classified and experimental technology that officially did not exist. In addition, they have all available information from all other agencies. The Task Force serve as an elite counter terrorism unit and are the first line of defense against the [[Consortium (Act of War)|Consortium]]. This group was led by Army Major Jason Richter who tends to follow his own orders and goes outside the normal chain of command. ==Units== '''Infantry''' *'''Task Force Commando:''' Task force commandos have been handpicked from all branches of the US military. Their primary role is to provide eyes and ears on the ground for more-powerful units and to clear and defend buildings. Few infantry units can match up with these commandos in urban combat. *'''Heavy Sniper:''' These elite soldiers are armed with the Model 82A1 scoped rifle, making them the deadliest infantry units on the battlefield. These guns are so powerful that they can even take out light vehicles. '''Vehicles''' *'''Buggy:''' The buggy is the standard recon and "hit and run" transport unit of Task Force Talon. Its fast speed and good visibility make it an excellent scout, and it can detect stealth units with thermal detection. It is armed with a 12.7mm machine gun and a 20mm automatic grenade launcher. *'''SHIELD:''' The super high infantry electronic defensive system, or SHIELD, is the infantry unit of the next century. Its Kevlar armor makes it resistant to light missiles and shells, while its fast speed makes it mobile. It is armed with a heavy machine gun coupled with a fast antitank minimissile launcher. '''Aircraft''' *'''RQ-4A Global Hawk:''' The Global Hawk drone is a fast scout with excellent visual range and stealth-detection capability. These drones can be upgraded to carry two Hellfire missiles to provide close air support to ground troops. However, the drone loses its stealth abilities when armed. *'''F/A-35 Joint Strike Fighter:''' This fighter bomber was designed for air superiority and laser-guided bombing runs. Though not as good as the F-15 for air superiority, it is still a potent warplane with its four GPS-guided bombs. However, its lack of stealth makes it vulnerable to enemy air defenses. *'''RAH-66 Comanche:''' Fast and stealthy, but without armament and lightly armored, the Comanche helicopters are normally used for scout and recon missions. However, once upgraded with antitank missiles, they become invisible killers. ==Appearances== *''Act of War'': {{stub}} [[Category:Military units]] [[Category:Articles linked to the United States]]
