History

High-Tech Special Forces Unit FOXHOUND (ハイテク特殊部隊フォックスハウンド|Haiteku Tokushu Butai Fokkusuhaundo|also spelled FOX-HOUND) was founded by the United States government under the command of Big Boss, in order to cope with local revolutions, regional complications, and global terrorist activities - although they were given too much of a free rein over what they were allowed to do, and became power hungry mercenaries.

During the Outer Heaven disturbance, FOXHOUND is ordered to infiltrate the fortified nation of Outer Heaven, a base founded by and for mercenaries. The objectives are to destroy the prototype Metal Gear and rescue its creator, Dr. Drago Pettrovich Madnar. As commanding officer, Big Boss oversees the mission, but is also secretly the leader of Outer Heaven forces and the person bankrolling Metal Gear's development. Conspiring against his unit, Big Boss first sends his most trusted man, Gray Fox, into Outer Heaven only to have him captured. He then sends an inexperienced agent, Solid Snake, and attempts to mislead him via radio. Solid Snake is imprisoned along with Gray Fox, but manages to escape. Despite Big Boss's best efforts, Solid Snake completes his mission, rescuing Gray Fox and Dr. Madnar, destroying Metal Gear, and leaving Big Boss for dead. Sometime after this mission, Solid Snake retires from FOXHOUND.

Agents of FOXHOUND during this period include Big Boss himself, his executive officer Roy Campbell, and field operatives Gray Fox and Solid Snake. Presumably, tactical expert and drill instructor McDonell Miller was also a member of FOXHOUND during this time, as he trained Solid Snake (who is a new recruit at the time of the Outer Heaven incident), although neither him nor Colonel Campbell were directly involved in the Outer Heaven mission (Operation: Intrude N313).

Overview

They specialized in solo covert infiltration missions and black ops where they carried out top-secret operations within "unauthorized" combat zones which are too politically-sensitive to intervene in through conventional means.

Each of FOXHOUND's members is a preternaturally skilled soldier, and the members of the unit have dabbled or even specialized in unusual subjects such as mysticism or psionics. Whether specialized or not, each of the members of FOXHOUND has a broad range of special forces and espionage training, and is capable of operating either on their own or together as a team, as appropriate.
