Galactic Police (GalCop)
Contents
Overview
The Galactic Police (GalCop), is the law enforcement organization of the Galactic Co-operative of Worlds. Its task is to ensure safety and prevent crime on the space lines of member systems. Any event on a planet or moon is in the jurisdiction of the local government.
While officially controlled by the Council of Justice it is common practice to patrol in a combined team with local space police or navy units. For troubled systems GalCop deputies can be sworn in - some of these deputies are actually hired mercenaries. Some local governments have replaced GalCop almost entirely with their own law enforcement troops.

Divisions
GalCop Special Branch:
A special unit of hand-picked GalCop officers who have shown exceptional ability. Equipped with advanced ships and weapons they target the high level organized crime activity in sector 7.
Ships
While the ships of choice are the Viper and the Viper Interceptor, the organization receives permanent donations or large discounts on several varieties of fighters so, in reality, a wide pool of choice is available.

Remarks
This page includes scenarios from various OXP's: in the core game only GalCop Vipers act as space police. All credits to "Elite Dangerous" for the Golden Eagle, a free download from the web.
