HU Marines

The HUM is a section of the HU Armed Forces, sibling branch to the HUA and the HU-SIF as part of the HUAR. While the HUA is a general fighting force, perfectly capable of fighting on a larger or smaller scale as required, the HUM is an elite fighting force, more capable, better trained and better equipped. The primary use for the HUM is primarily in ship-to-ship combat, used to either cause damage to enemy vessels from the inside or capturing them, though HUM soldiers have been utilized as extremely effective shock troops in the past.

The HUM, like the HU-SIF Elite Cruisers, often participate in the combat testing of new equipment or technology: most recently, the PEAS MKIII, the ADOM IV and V unit prototypes, and newer drop wall models. Often, new firearm designs through Wings are distributed among HUM soldiers for testing. Often, this causes some amount of friction between the HUA and the HUM, a rivalry that COM has allowed to exist due to the fact that combat efficiency and effectivity are greatly encouraged by it as a result of competition.
