Emergency Services

Unfortunately, our public emergency services are unavailable due to ongoing pirate activity in the Stanton system. Our services will resume once contractual obligations with the UEE Navy and UEE Civilian Defence Force end.


IMPORTANT: Skyhawks Security is not a real-world emergency services provider.
