2+ Total members
NCOIC: Sergeant (E-5)

Atmospheric Command Section
For Atmospheric Command units, a section is the equivalent to a ground force squad. It would be considered one craft with its crew.
Chapter nomenclature
RMA chapters have regimental names,[2] so a Tier 1 chapter portrays a subsidiary squad of the named regiment.
Example: Shadow Vale Regiment, Alpha Company, First Platoon, First Squad.
Tier 1 chapters are Attached Elements of larger chapters,[3] so will take their name as a squad of the parent chapter. If a Tier 1 chapter upgrades to a Tier 2 or larger chapter, it can then select its own regimental name.
Royal Manticoran Marine Corps
A shipboard Marine Detachment (MarDet) may be squad sized.
