Engagements

The 2nd Special Expeditionary Fleet (Quenminese: Hạm đội Viễn chinh Đặc biệt số 2), also known as the Long Range Strategic Strike Fleet (Hạm đội tấn công chiến lược tầm xa), the Thủy Tinh Fleet (Hạm đội Thủy Tinh) and the Invincible Fleet (Hạm đội Bất khả chiến bại), was a carrier battle group of the Imperial Quenminese Navy. It was created on 16 March 1939 with several vessels from the 3rd Fleet and newly commissioned destroyers and light cruisers.

The fleet has been known to not lose a single ship throughout the course of its active service, and has played a pivotal role in damaging Allied naval and seaborne logistical efforts through long range missions and raids throughout the Pacificanna Ocean, the western seaboard of North Amerigonna, and the Hawaii, Soryu, and Peristylium Islands. From its prowess and record, it has earned its perception and reputation of "invincibility" and it is often requested by Naval Headquarters after the loss of the 1st Fleet's carriers and several destroyers and cruisers at the Battle of Midway. It also cooperated with the Archadian Navy in its operations. The fleet was wiped out while docked at San Clemerial, Ilari on 14 July 1943 in an operation involving the Special Operations Executive's Oboe Company, the Royal Concordian Air Force, and the Royal Rubrumian Air Force, which significantly hampered Quenminese and Archadian naval presence in the Pacificanna.
