Exosquad - Season 1

After Exosquad comes to the rescue of a freighter being attacked by Tethysian Pirates, the entire Exofleet is commissioned by the General Assembly to pursue and eliminate the pirate menace once and for all.

The Tethysian Pirates are pushed back to their bases on Mars. Phaeton, the Neosapien governor of Mars, gives a strange speech. Back on Earth, a disgruntled ex-Exosquad pilot has become a police officer.

With the Terran Exofleet busy with the final push to take out the pirates on an icy moon of Saturn, Governor Phaeton launches Operation Destiny, a massive Neosapien surprise attack against the Terran Homeworlds.

The surprise attacks by the Neo-Sapiens are proving effective, with Venus and Mars easy targets and Earth itself in danger. Admiral Winfield's absence has put Captain Marcus in charge, but he foolishly commands the remaining Exo-fleet into a Neo-Sapien trap and then charges Able Squad's Lt. Marsh with mutiny. The human resistance on Earth is gaining momentum, but is still out-matched by the Neo-Sapiens, and with Marsh in the brig the Exosquad is now leaderless.

The Exosquad helps Lt. Marsh escape imprisonment to help defend the doomed squadron of Exo-carriers as they try to escape, but this leaves Earth defenseless against the Neosapiens, who plan to implant all humans with tracking devices. J.T. joins forces with the Resistance led by former Exosquad pilot Sean Napier.

A year later, J.T. and Exosquad return to Earth to help Sean and the Resistance team dismantle Phaeton's new GRAF planetary defense shield and capture its inventor.

Learning that the GRAF shield around Venus is almost operational, the team blends in with the Terran "undesirables" being deported to Venus, but en route they discover a one of the Resistance members is a traitor.

Marsala rescues the exotroopers from a Neosapien plan to send their craft into the sun, but are then captured by starving Venusians planning to trade them to the Neosapiens for food. Nara Burns learns that most of her family on Venus has been killed.

Burns finds her brother, who is the Resistance leader who captured Marsh, and persuades him to cancel the deal with the Neosapiens. The Able Squad attacks the Venusian GRAF Shield installation and extracts Terran Professor Algernon, its real inventor.

Fed up with Admiral Winfield's passivity, Captain Furlong and Marcus take control of the fleet, and plan to get rid of J.T. and Able Squad by sending them on a suicide mission to Mars.

Marcus leads the fleet into the heart of Neosapien territory, but the attack is a disaster. Marcus has to sacrifice his flagship and his own life so that the rest of Exofleet can escape. But with Phaeton recalling all troops from Mars, the way is cleared for Able Squad to locate the Neosapien breeding facility..

Marsala seemingly betrays the Terrans, but this is a ruse to get close enough to Phaeton and take him hostage. When the Able Squad is freed, General Typhonus sends in the E-frames to eliminate them. Meanwhile, the Exofleet remnants set course for Io.

The Able Squad takes Phaeton hostage and prepares the demolition of the breeding facility. Phaeton attempts to escape but is injured and contracts the Automutation Syndrome. J.T. makes an effort to forge a peace with the Tethysian Pirates.
