This page contains some of the tactics commonly used by the YSS Aeon in combat.
This is the basic formation for travel the Aeon takes the lead point, the Integrity and Succubus fly next just clear of the lead ship's wings, the Ouroboros forms the bottom of the diamond flying slightly lower than the rest of the squadron.
The Delta-3 is an evasive configuration, the squadron forms a flying Λ. The Aeon and Integrity are at the point, with the Integrity flying inverted to the Aeon with their shields overlapping. The other two ships form the bottom of the v.
The Box configuration is used most often when the squadron is protecting another ship. The Aeon flies above the escorted ship. The Integrity flies below it. The Succubus flies off the port of the ship, while the Ouroboros flies off its port. The ships fly with the keels pointing to the ship so that maximum firepower can be brought to bear against any attacker who approaches.
In this confirmation the squadron splits into two groups. Aeon pairs up with Integrity and the other two group up. They then fly in pairs and engage targets together.
The Sabre formation has the squadron flying in a line with each ship flying 25 meters above and behind the ship in front of it. It is used to concentrate the main cannons of the squadron on a single target.
