Los Santos: The Los Santos Police Department is proud to announce it's latest endeavour in the establishment of the Metropolitan Division's Space Force Platoon (S Platoon), a Platoon developed to spearhead stratospheric and interplanetary crime.

The space-bound unit offers many opportunities for career development as it is comprised of 1 Lieutenant, 1 Sergeant, and 10 Police Officers who will be tasked with engaging extra-terrestrial violence posing a threat to our home planet, Earth.

Receiving generous funding from the United States Government as part of it's Space Program grant, S Platoon is equipped with 20 flight-suits fitted with armor plating, 1 primary rocket ship to facilitate escaping the stratosphere, and 2 battle-ready shuttles to facilitate space-patrols and hostile engagements.


The Department's Commanding Officer of the Metropolitan Division, Police Commander Gareth Longford, has been tasked with collaborating with STD Contractors to construct a state-of-the-art base of operations for the training and deployment of S Platoon, the location of which shall not be disclosed to the public for the purpose of security and safety.

With personnel currently undergoing training, they will complete an 8 month course before being deployed into Space. Although the facility has not been officially named at the time of posting, it has been loosely dubbed, "Earth-base Langley", after the former Governor and Space Cadet, Lewis Langley.

The primary responsibilities of S Platoon and the Officers assigned to it shall consist of the following:
  • Defense - The Space Force Platoon will enforce stratospheric and interplanetary security throughout the Solar System to ensure the safety of Earth's inhabitants.
  • Space Law Enforcement - Working with the United Nations, the United States Government are developing toward the establishment of the Solar Penal Code, a penal code similar to our very own although further applicable to the Solar System. S Platoon are tasked with patrolling the Solar System and responding to distress calls, enforcing the Solar Penal Code with accuracy.
  • Rescue Missions - S Platoon will be at the forefront of providing a rescue service to any and all souls who may find themselves adrift in the cold and dark of space. Continue reading for contact details.

As part of the United States Government's employment initiative, S Platoon is currently providing 2,000 jobs to United States Citizens, with a further 1,000 projected to be created by the year 2032.

If you find yourself in need of the Space Force's unique and elite services, please do not hesitate to call the dedicated hotline #299-7924580 and you will receive assistance within minutes. A non-exhaustive example list of acceptable reasons to call the Space Force can be found below:

The Los Santos Police Department requests that any minor offenses performed, witnessed, or experienced are filed in a Police Report to allow for the uninterrupted communication of priority radio traffic in Space Force Dispatch. A press release will be issued upon the completion and implementation of the Solar Penal Code so all citizens may be properly informed of their legal responsibilities regarding Space.
