The White Knights were one of the flight groups selected to participate in the evaluation of the Advanced Tactical Assault Fighters at the Obex Research Centre.

In June 2617 they participated in Operation Menelaus, originally being assigned to the Initial Run team to strike at CSN Dragon and its frigate escort. The group were, however, moved back to secondary defence of CSN Griffin after Elliott Parks discovered that Simon Dodds and Enrique Todd were still drunk, following a night of heavy drinking. The move ultimately saved the team's lives.

The White Knights are currently the team assigned to piloting the ATAFs, working with the Confederation and Independent Worlds on a number of so-called Special Operations.
