-Compared with the rigid and permanent structure of a [[stararmy:special_intelligence_fire_team|]] //SPPs on a unit level// are temporary and amorphous. An SPP unit can be as small as a fireteam or as large as a battalion. It can be made up of starships, troops, vehicles and any combination inbetween. It maintains its own structure, whereas a SIFT yields to the fireteam structure. +Compared with the rigid and permanent structure of a [[stararmy:special_operations_fire_team|SOFT,]] //SPPs on a unit level// are temporary and amorphous.

-Parameters also differ. A SIFT falls under [[stararmy:command]] as well as SAINT and organically executes missions within itself. An SPP unit might evolve a mission this way, but more often already is on or within a mission when it is given its status.+Parameters also differ.
