The Martian Congressional Republic Navy (MCRN) Jupiter fleet is a MCRN fleet operating in Jupiter's area of operations (A.O.), primarily stationed near the moons of Callisto and Ganymede. The MCRN Donnager, namesake for the Donnager-class battleship, was the flagship of the fleet until its eventual destruction, succeeded by another Donnager-class battleship as flagship of the fleet, the MCRN Schiaparelli.
Events[]
During the UN-MCR Cold War, Captain Theresa Yao commanded the flagship of the fleet, the mighty MCRN Donnager along with several internally docked Corvette-class light frigates, and Morrigan-class patrol destroyers in Operation Silent Wall to destroy the Pirate threat to Martian shipping lanes.
The Donnager would later be deployed to the Cronian (Saturnian) moon of Phoebe where its Martian research team was found to have been killed mysteriously. The Donnager then transferred back to Mars where it received a distress call from the shuttle Knight. The survivors were rescued when the Martian battleship was attacked and boarded by 6 Protogen Amun-Ra class stealth frigates. Captain Yao ordered Condition Zero and after the civilian survivors escaped onboard the MCRN Tachi the ship was scuttled, completely destroying it, along with the remaining boarders and Amun-Ra's.
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 Jupiter fleet and MCRN Jupiter fleet believing their own forces were under attack by the other. Both fleets engaged causing significant damage to the mirrors in orbit.
