Galaxy wing

An attack wing of Template:ShipClass starships.

An attack wing is a formation of vessels.

The combined Cardassian-Dominion strike force which attacked Deep Space 9 in 2373 comprised several such wings. Attack wings one through five were ordered to intercept the USS Defiant, with the remaining ships targeting the station. Dukat later ordered all attack wings and batteries to concentrate on a section of the outer docking ring in order to bring down the station's shields. (DS9: "Call to Arms")

The Federation also employed attack wing formations when needed. During Operation Return, cruiser and Galaxy wings were used. Galaxy wings 9-1 and 9-3 were ordered to engage a group of Template:ShipClass destroyers attempting to set up a crossfire. (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")

In early 2375, Admiral William Ross, on behalf of the Third Fleet, requested two more attack wings of Romulan Warbirds from Romulan Senator Cretak. (DS9: "Image in the Sand")
