The Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) is a counter-terrorist agency that has several offices in different planets across the Galaxy. It's based in Coruscant and its leader is called the Director of CTU. CTU is responsible for the Division Command, which in turn is responsible to the Surpreme Chancellor Palpatine.

Overview[edit | edit source]

CTU HQ[edit | edit source]

CTU Headquarters are located in Coruscant and most important operations are controlled from the HQ. The CTU HQ also focuses on domestic terrorism, such as Coruscanti CIS spies and terrorists.

CTU was rather infamous - especially in the underworld - for its brutal torture methods. The HQ building in Coruscant held many torture chambers and they were used almost daily by CTU agents.

Order 65, which was executed in 19 BBY marked the destruction of the intergalactic Counter Terrorist Unit as clone troopers began shooting CTU and Division agents. Some agents, like Jack Phoenix survived from this purge.

CTU was replaced in the Galactic Empire by Imperial Security Bureau which initially was led by Felon Yorker.

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

The CTU logo is an unmodified version of the one that appears in 24, which explains why the text "United States of America" is clearly visible in some scenes. This has since become a running gag.
