Barrow Defense Authority

Acting as the military command for the Independent Barrow State the BDA originated as a small fleet of retrofitted freighters and cargo transports repurposed for a potential war of succession. While its overall practice has changed, many of the ships and vehicles still hold onto their once agrarian and transport roots in appearance.

History
Formally recognized in 2535 the BDA had been active for nearly two decades prior. Following the end of the Human-Covenant War, Barrow had long been producing its own warships capable of defending the Barrow home system. Expeditionary fleets were merely scouting strike-groups as the IBS firmly insisted on an isolationist existence.
