If you have problems with Vasteel Technology, just call them.

Featured in Thunder Force V, the Combat Unit 222, better known as the Special Flight Squadron "Thunder Force" or "Thunder Force 222" is the only thing that stands between the survival of mankind and its destruction in hands of the Guardian.

Thunder Force V[]

The Government scrapped together all the resources remaining and formed Combat Unit 222, made up of seven RVR-01 Gauntlet starfighters with a grand total of three test flights between them. The unit (my unit) was called Thunder Force. Overly bombastic? You betcha.
But we needed every psychological advantage we could get, including flying in a squadron that sounds like an organization of exhibitionist superheroes.

Thunder Force V: Perfect System - Cenes Crawford's Report

In the aftermath of the Second Annihilation, what remained of the World Unified Government miraculously scraped enough of its resources to produce the RVR-01 "Gauntlet", a duplicate of the original Vasteel in every way. An elite combat unit is formed to pilot the Gauntlet fighters and destroy Babel and Guardian before mankind is snuffed out of existence, the unit's code name: Thunder Force.

Tfv6

A special combat Flight unit of seven RVR-01 Gauntlet fighters, formed in 2151 to destroy Babel and defeat Guardian. The "FLIGHT" teams ID is "KNIGHTS", also earning them the nickname "Knight's Of Legend". Many of the Thunder Force pilots are also members of the RVR development program, including engineers and CTN (cybernetic terminal module) members.

Known Team members of Thunder Force 222[]

  • Cenes Crawford - Sky Colonel and team leader of the unit. Her Callsign is "Phoenix", she's called "KNIGHT 1".

Revival as "Operation 3" (Thunder Force VI)[]

During the events of Thunder Force VI, it is highly plausible that sometime in 2161 the Combat Unit 222 became what is known as the "Operation 3" initiative, since the name "Thunder Force Team" is mentioned and it uses the same logo as Thunder Force 222, with an added heart on the lightning bolt.
