Sky Fury Squadron is an elite Viking unit of the Terran Dominion Royal Guard. During the Second Great War, they served in defense Emperor Arcturus Mengsk.[1] After Mengsk's death, a number of their members defected to the Defenders of Man and served as the elite guard of General Carolina Davis.[2]
History
Near the end of the Second Great War, Sky Fury Squadron fought in defense of Augustgrad during the Swarm's invasion of Korhal. The squadron, along with the Night Wolves, attempted to stop Sarah Kerrigan from destroying the planet's Drakken defense network.[3] Later, Sky Fury Squadron fought in defense of the Korhal Palace itself against the zerg and Raynor's Raiders. At one point, Mengsk personally ordered Sky Fury Squadron to destroy the Hyperion, but they failed. Ultimately the Swarm and the Raiders triumphed over the Royal Guard and ended Mengsk's reign.[1]
During the Defenders of Man Insurgency, members of Sky Fury Squadron defected to General Carolina Davis and the Defenders of Man. They aided in the final defense of the Xanthos at the Cerros Shipyards against Dominion forces led by Agent Nova Terra.[2]
This article or section contains information derived from Co-op Missions, and should not be considered part of the official StarCraft storyline.

Co-op Missions
Sky Furies are a variant of Vikings built by Arcturus Mengsk in Co-op Missions. They have powerful anti-air and anti-ground attacks that do large amounts of damage to massive units. They can be upgraded to temporarily have 50% increased damage upon transforming at Rank 2, and at Rank 3 can evade attacks in the air and move into the air upon taking fatal damage when in assault mode.
Sky Furies cannot heal themselves, so having Dominion troopers turn into Dominion laborers between battles to repair them will aid greatly in their survival.[4]

Trivia
The Sky Fury was designed in Co-op Missions in reference to the Heart of the Swarm opening cinematic, where a Viking lands to fight an ultralisk only to be crushed. According to Co-op director Kevin Dong, the Sky Fury's bonus vs massive was designed to make it powerful vs ultralisks as a means to "redo" that part of the cinematic.[6]
