Overview[]
Mobile Task Force Sigma-9, codenamed "Valkyries," is the SCP Foundation's elite aerial task force. Acting as the Foundation's miniature air force, Sigma-9 provides critical support to ground operations through close air support, aerial reconnaissance, and the neutralization of airborne anomalies. The task force is equipped with a range of advanced aircraft and weaponry, designed to engage both conventional and anomalous aerial threats.
Sigma-9's specialized role sets it apart from other Mobile Task Forces. While most MTF units operate primarily on the ground, Sigma-9 dominates the skies, ensuring that the Foundation maintains control over airspace in both offensive and defensive operations. Despite their crucial role, Sigma-9 is not a playable task force in SCP Task Force. They make brief but impactful appearances in specific missions, providing essential air support when ground forces are overwhelmed or when dealing with airborne anomalies.
Appearances[]
- Operation Blind Eye: Sigma-9 makes a brief appearance in this operation, providing critical air support against UNGOC troops to the ground units tasked with containing SCP-096. Their involvement is vital in clearing the way for ground forces to execute their mission safely.
- Operation Broken Chain: The player takes control of Sigma-9 and fires multiple missiles before being attacked by SCP-076-2 "Able". Sigma-9 also drops off the Tank later in the mission.
Role and Capabilities[]
Sigma-9's primary mission is to support the SCP Foundation's operations through aerial dominance. They excel in:
- Close Air Support: Sigma-9 provides direct firepower from the air, supporting ground troops by engaging enemy forces, destroying fortified positions, and neutralizing airborne threats.
- Aerial Reconnaissance: Using a variety of aircraft, Sigma-9 conducts aerial surveillance, gathering intelligence on hostile forces and anomalies from high altitudes, ensuring that the Foundation is always aware of potential threats.
- Airborne Anomaly Engagement: Sigma-9 is specifically trained and equipped to deal with anomalies that operate in or affect the airspace. This includes both physical entities that take to the skies and anomalous weather or other phenomena that could threaten Foundation operations.
