--> -- '''Kali'''

A private military company founded by Jaimini Kalimohan "Kali" Shah after she left the Indian military. Highly-proficient, profit-oriented, and with a near-spotless record for success, the PMC was originally recruited into Team Rainbow to prevent it from being hired by wealthy criminal organizations, terrorist groups, and other similarly dangerous elements. Unfortunately, it turned out that Kali had other plans in mind and eventually she and her people severed ties with Rainbow, but not before pinching several of its own Operators into her employ. Since then, the two organizations have been at odds with each other.
\\\
Aside from its mercs, NIGHTHAVEN also has the Quantum Concepts and Robotics (QCR) division, responsible for conducting research and development as well as providing the PMC with advanced military hardware. This division is headed by Anja Katarina "Osa" Janković.

* FacelessGoons: NIGHTHAVEN's regular grunts have face-concealing helmets and personal armor that completely hides their body's profile. [[MuggedForDisguise Rainbow takes advantage of this]] in the ''Vector Glare'' comic to infiltrate one of the company's bases in Singapore and to get the drop on Kali ''a second time'' during the ''Solar Raid'' cinematic.
* NGOSuperpower: [[DownplayedTrope Sort of]]. NIGHTHAVEN lacks the numbers and materiel to completely overtake a country, but its men do have QCR's top-of-the-line gear that can give any superpower's military a run for their money. Not to mention, the PMC has its own vehicles and aircraft, as well as various facilities across the world including an R&D lab in Singapore and at least one offshore base to operate out of. Given that Kali is constantly seeking high-paying contracts and recruiting more people for her PMC, it probably won't be long before NIGHTHAVEN becomes a full-blown superpower of its own.
* PrivateMilitaryContractors: In contrast to most examples found in the ''Tom Clancy's'' franchise, NIGHTHAVEN is not an openly malicious or gung-ho mercenary company, nor is it directly involved in a NebulousCriminalConspiracy. Also, the characters seen thus far run the gamut from anywhere in the SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism, as a wholly-idealistic ex-cop like Aruni is working alongside a humorless, coldly-pragmatic mercenary like Grim.

!!Viperstrike

A highly-adaptive quick reaction unit that also lends support to the other Rainbow Squads. Viperstrike's Operators espouse discipline, versatility, responsiveness, and surgical precision, allowing the unit to handle almost any kind of operation with excellence.

Intended for direct action operations that require brute force and aggressive tactics against the opposition. Redhammer Squad is comprised of Operators who are well-versed in demolitions, explosives, forced entry, and heavy weapons. The Squad's current leader is Jordan "Thermite" Trace.

* UnscrupulousHero: Roughly half of Ghosteyes is made up of individuals who are willing to get their hands dirty in order to get the job done. Unsurprisingly, many of these Operators are also defined by a dark past or a childhood trauma that has conditioned them to accept such tactics as a necessary evil.

* NGOSuperpower: [[DownplayedTrope Sorta]]. NIGHTHAVEN lacks the numbers and materiel to completely overtake a country, but its men do have QCR's top-of-the-line gear that can give any superpower's military a run for their money. Not to mention, the PMC has its own vehicles and aircraft, as well as various facilities across the world including an R&D lab in Singapore and at least one offshore base to operate out of. Given that Kali is constantly seeking high-paying contracts and recruiting more people for her PMC, it probably won't be long before NIGHTHAVEN becomes a full-blown superpower of its own.

* GoodIsNotSoft: As with real-life police work, "preservation of life" also implies preserving the bad guys' lives if possible. Indeed, a quick look at the Operators' special abilities will reveal that they're all about protection, healing, and non-lethal weaponry [[note]] Granted, [[GameplayAndStorySegregation actual gameplay is a different story]], but it's worth noting that the Shock Wire, the Shock Drone, and the Electro Shield were not designed to outright kill enemies.[[/note]]. That said, Wolfguard won't hesitate to put a bad guy down with lethal force when innocent lives and/or the Squad's lives are in jeopardy.

Added the known Squads so far + Recruit's portrait. Also, I placed NIGHTHAVEN in "Antagonistic Groups" because they're against Rainbow now.

[[folder: Squads]]

After NIGHTHAVEN's departure from Rainbow, the Team was reorganized into four distinct squads that have their own respective roles and expertise, all aimed at combating the resurgence of criminal and terrorist activity in the world.


!!Wolfguard
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/r6s_wolfguard_emblem.png]]

->''"By being careful and compassionate, we can make the world a safer place for everyone."''
--> -- '''Doc'''

Specializes in humanitarian operations where the preservation of life is paramount and collateral damage must be minimized. Wolfguard Squad mostly consists of Operators with backgrounds in hostage rescue, crowd control, field medicine, and trauma care. The Squad is currently led by Gustave "Doc" Kateb.
----
* AnimalMotifs: Obviously wolves, specifically of the NobleWolf archetype.
* GoodIsNotSoft: As with real-life police work, "preservation of life" also implies preserving the bad guys' lives if possible. Indeed, a quick look at the Operators' special abilities will reveal that they're all about protection, healing, and non-lethal weaponry [[note]] Granted, [[GameplayAndStorySegregation actual gameplay is a different story]], but it's worth noting that the Shock Wire, the Shock Drone, and the Electro Shield were not designed to outright kill enemies.[[/note]]. That said, Wolfguard won't hesitate to put a bad guy down with lethal force when innocent lives and/or the Squad's lives are in jeopardy.
* GoodWearsWhite: The Squad's standard uniform is predominantly white, with some shades of blue and grey.

!!Ghosteyes
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/r6s_ghosteyes_emblem.png]]

->''"Someone has to get their hands dirty to chase the rats out of the darkness."''
--> -- '''Caveira'''

Rainbow's black operations unit, responsible for conducting clandestine activities like infiltrations and assassinations. Ghosteyes's Operators are typically those experienced in stealth, subterfuge, intelligence-gathering, and covert elimination. The Squad is currently headed by Taina "Caveira" Pereira.
----
* AnimalMotifs: Spiders, which accentuate the Squad's cunning nature.
* StealthExpert: One of Ghosteyes's schticks is getting in and out of places undetected. The Squad has a variety of tools for this, ranging from advanced signal scramblers that fool enemy cameras to [[Main/CharlesAtlasSuperpower speedy and precise footwork]] that can help them sneak up on people.
* UnscrupulousHero: Roughly half of Ghosteyes is made up of individuals who are willing to get their hands dirty in order to get the job done. Unsurprisingly, many of these Operators are also defined by a dark past or a childhood trauma that has conditioned them to accept such tactics as a necessary evil.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/r6s_nighthaven_emblem2.png]]


->''"Some might see us selfish and opportunistic. Let them. NIGHTHAVEN will leave them in the dust as we soar."''
--> -- '''Kali'''

A private military company founded by Jaimini Kalimohan "Kali" Shah after she left the Indian military. Highly-proficient, profit-oriented, and with a near-spotless record for success, the PMC was originally recruited into Team Rainbow to prevent it from being hired by wealthy criminal organizations, terrorist groups, and other similarly dangerous elements. Unfortunately, it turned out that Kali had other plans in mind and eventually she and her people severed ties with Rainbow, but not before pinching several of its own Operators into her employ. Since then, the two organizations have been at odds with each other.
\\\
Aside from its mercs, NIGHTHAVEN also has the Quantum Concepts and Robotics (QCR) division, responsible for conducting research and development as well as providing the PMC with advanced military hardware. This division is headed by Anja Katarina "Osa" Janković.
----
* FacelessGoons: NIGHTHAVEN's regular grunts have face-concealing helmets and personal armor that completely hides their body's profile. [[MuggedForDisguise Rainbow takes advantage of this]] in the ''Vector Glare'' comic to infiltrate one of the groups bases in Singapore.
* NGOSuperpower: [[DownplayedTrope Sorta]]. NIGHTHAVEN lacks the numbers and materiel to completely overtake a country, but its men do have QCR's top-of-the-line gear that can give any superpower's military a run for their money.

Given that Kali is constantly seeking high-paying contracts and recruiting more people into her PMC, it probably won't be long before NIGHTHAVEN becomes a full-blown superpower of its own.
* PrivateMilitaryContractors: In contrast to most examples found in the ''Tom Clancy's'' franchise, NIGHTHAVEN is not an openly malicious or gung-ho mercenary company, nor is it directly involved in a NebulousCriminalConspiracy. Also, the characters seen thus far run the gamut from anywhere in the SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism, as a wholly-idealistic ex-cop like Aruni is working alongside a humorless, coldly-pragmatic mercenary like Grim.
* SigilSpam: Expect to see NIGHTHAVEN's distinctive owl insigna on damn near everything it owns. Guns, drones, exoskeletons, VTOL aicraft... [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking even the vending machines]].

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Despite being a psychologist! Bringing on NIGHTHAVEN was a decision objected to by Ash, while Harry believed it was better to have Kali on Rainbow's side than being a wild card. By Year Seven, NIGHTHAVEN ramped up tension in the team and Kali eventually pulls out, poaching five Rainbow Operators (Smoke, Pulse, IQ, Ela and Finka) along with her own team.
