The UN Marines are ground attack specialists combining traditional infantry with mechanized infantry (Destroids) and air support (VF and other aerospace craft.) In addition, they are routinely assigned to internal ship security in non-UNSM ships of the fleet.


The UNSM are the standing army of the UNG, ready to rapidly react to any military crisis in the UNG sphere. Aside from (usually) being the first to arrive, they are often employed in theaters (of war) that are outside of the mandate of the other branches of the UN Armed Forces or theaters that any other UN Armed Force is active in that will cause civilian protest.


To undertake this mandate, the UNSM are heavily armed in fast, manueverable star ships. However, the UNSM are never seen in large fleets and though they are involved in many military actions, their entire force is only a small percentage compared to the other Armed Forces and spread across the known territories.


UNSM that aren't assigned to internal ship security roles operate in small task forces called Marine Expeditionary Units (MEU).


Noteable MEU in the MRC are:

  • MEU-12: Assigned to the M-15 Colonization Fleet in 2045~2047.
  • MEU-13: Assigned to the M-15 Colonization Fleet in 2047~2050. Currently tasked with defending the establishment of a Marine/UN Intelligence training facility on LV-426 and activities in the surrounding sectors.
