  • The Fleet Admiral (real name unknown) is the moustachioed captain of a Galactic Federation armada dispatched to the Extreme Galaxy in the final chapters of Metroid EX. Having been summoned by Papa Lightning of the Craftsmen, the Admiral commands his troops to battle the Greed Corps. A fellow crewmember on his ship asks why they are in the Extreme Galaxy. The admiral responds that they are here to rescue someone very important, Samus Aran. This admiral resembles Commander Adam Malkovich and Fleet Admiral Castor Dane from the canon Metroid series. : Non-canonical information ends here.

  • Fleet Admiral was the most senior grade of admiral used by most space navies. The responsibilities of holders of this rank included serving as heads of major naval departments up to and including Chief of Naval Operations. Typically a political position as much as one of military command, fleet admirals were often in a position of directly liaising with the heads of civilian governments, and almost never saw the planes of contention for themselves. The only rank that was higher was that of Grand Admiral, a position that only existed within the Galactic Empire under Emperor Palpatine.
  • This rank has been replaced with the rank of "Flag Officer".
