By the mid-thirty-second century the Clusters of Valkyrie Galaxy had been reassigned, and no longer served as escorts for the ''Rasalhague''; instead, each was assigned to the defense of a major world, with the Second assigned to Alshain and the sixth to [[Rasalhague]]. Each Cluster had been rebuilt to one hundred and fifty aerospace fighters, and Valkyrie Galaxy had been augmented by the addition of four ''[[Aesir (DropShip class)|Aesir]]''-class DropShips - the ''[[Balder]]'', ''[[Gefjun]]'', ''[[Syn]]'', and ''[[Var]]'' - which had been split between the two Clusters to give each the ability to rove throughout their assigned systems with heavy support.<ref name="FM:3145p163">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 163: "Valkyrie Galaxy"</ref>

Valkyrie Galaxy became the heart of the tactical and strategic aerospace doctrine developed by the [[Rasalhague Dominion]]; although the two Clusters were operating in largely defensive roles, assignment to either Cluster was viewed as a prestige position, and as a consequence Valkyrie had become both a billet for elite pilots closing on retirement and a form of finishing school for ''[[ristar]]s''. As a consequence, Valkyrie was a potent mix of ambition and experience, with young pilots rotating out of Valkyrie to spread the benefits of the experience and wisdom gained during a tour in Valkyrie Galaxy to the other aerospace units dotted throughout the Dominion. The aerospace manufacturers at the Tseng Facility and at [[Gorton, Kingsley, and Thorpe Enterprises]] were well aware of the influence and experience Valkyrie Galaxy embodied and forged close links with the Galaxy, with many retiring warriors being offered consulting positions with one or other company.<ref name="FM:3145p163"/>
