The United Nations Navy (UNN) Jupiter fleet is a UNN fleet operating in the Jupiter's area of operations (A.O.), primally serving near Ganymede and Europa. The Truman-class dreadnought, UNN Agatha King under the command of Admiral Souther, later replaced by Fleet Admiral Augusto Nguyễn, served as the flagship of the Jupiter Fleet until the ship's destruction.


Events[]

At the jointly operated UN-MCR station on Ganymede, several UN Marines were attacked by a Protomolecule Hybrid. The UN Marines retreated towards nearby Martian Marines, who engaged the Hybrid unsuccessfully. Communications were being jammed and this led to confusion in orbit with both the UNN fleet and MCRN fleets believing their own forces were under attack by the other. Both fleets engaged causing significant damage to the mirrors in orbit of the moon.

After failed peace talks the United Nations (UN) and Martian Congressional Republic (MCR) went to war with each other in the UN-MCR War. With heavy casualties on both sides the majority of the conflict was fought by the UNN Jupiter fleet, the UNN 3rd fleet, the UNN 5th fleet, and the UNN 8th fleet. Fighting occurred at Ganymede and over Io during the Io Campaign.

When Admiral Souther was killed on the CIC (Combat Information Center) of the Agatha King by Fleet Admiral Nguyễn, the ship had refused to acknowledge its new orders from Nguyễn, along with the UNN Heisserer. Nguyễn then personally fired upon the ship and destroyed it, causing the fleet to turn upon each other in retaliation for the ships' destruction and Admiral Souther's death.

When Admiral Souther was killed on the CIC of the Agatha King by Fleet Admiral Nguyễn, the ship had refused to acknowledge its new orders from Nguyễn, along with the UNN Jimenez. Nguyễn then destroyed the Jimenez for not acknowledging new orders from him, and the entire fleet then starts firing upon one another in retaliation for the Jimenez's destruction and Admiral Souther's death. It is likely the Heisserer fired upon the Agatha King or other ships that supported Fleet Admiral Nguyễn. It is unknown if the ship was destroyed
