The Black Eagle Strike Force (Japanese: 黒鷲遊撃軍シュヴァルツァアドラーヴェーア Black Eagle Strike Force, Schwarze Adlerwehr) is an elite military force of the Adrestian Empire formed by former students from 1180's Black Eagle House of the Officers Academy and their teacher Byleth during the Crimson Flower route of Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

History

In 1181, following Edelgard's declaration of war against the Church of Seiros, Byleth and the students of Black Eagle House escaped the Monastery and sided with Adrestia. Edelgard formed the Black Eagle Strike Force from this group to serve as her elite military squad in the war against the Church of Seiros. In the Strike Force's first battle against the church, Byleth was defeated by Rhea and went missing for four years.

Byleth reemerged in 1185 and reunited with the Black Eagles Strike Force. Following this, the Strike Force lead a series of battles that resulted in decisive victories against the Leicester Alliance, the Kingdom of Faerghus, and the Church of Seiros, uniting all of Fódlan under of dominion of Adrestia.
