= History =

Operation Delta
Immediately after the Fleet’s formation, when Michael Atreides had just been promoted to Commodore, the fleet participated in Operation Delta.

The Jehovah Jirah Task Force succeeded in eliminating enough Borg controlled systems for the Borg to send the majority of their fleets to counter it.

While the major defenses were away, the Jehovah Kiriath Task Force loaded the neurogenic virus into the Borg’s primary nexus – slowly shutting down the Borg as the traditional Sovereign class and Galaxy class fleets entered the area, blasted the dying cubes, and claimed victory.

Temporal War
During the Temporal War several foreign temporal agents attempted to hijack at least one Worldship and 3 Hyperion class battle-cruisers.

While they were unsuccessful, the current guards were also unable to capture them.

This alerted Starfleet Command to a Temporal Threat and a response by several Wells class ships lead by the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-W)

However, Rear Admiral Michael Atreides acted on his own initiative and instigated Admiral Picard to activate the Jehoval Jirah Task Force.

The Jehoval Jirah used a phased nano-space variance within their Wormhole to follow the temporal agents to a future period.

After a short battle where approximately 1/4th of the Jehovah Jirah fleet had to be dock on their Worldship for repairs, the Hyperion class Xbinrpeov managed to locate a weakness in the enemy shields which quickly allowed victory.

Wyrqux Incident
All 3 task Forces are currently involved deterring in the escalating Wyrqux incident.
