Battlegroup Black was a naval special mission detachment that was part of the Third Fleet of the Alliance Navy. The battlegroup was activated briefly during the First Battle of Torfan and put under the command of Captain Harold Sing, where it was deployed as orbital support during the battle while the rest of the Third Fleet held off batarian naval reinforcements. More ships reinforced the battlegroup afterwards and managed to defend the planet against an attack from the batarian Tar'hash fleet. After the Skyllian Blitz and the subsequent abandonment of Torfan, the battlegroup was deactivated.
