This came from the idea of a 20th Century Aircraft Carrier, not unlike the CVN USS Enterprise. As we've seen on nearly every episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager, the Bridge is a busy place. Now, toss in having to coordinate all flight operations, search and rescue, intelligence analysis of recon flights, along with making sure all fighters land and take off successfully, and even the most competent bridge officers would quickly be overwhelmed. The Marine Tactical Information Center, or MTIC, is designed to take all of those burdens off of the bridge and let the bridge officers do what they need to do in combat situations. | This came from the idea of a 20th Century Aircraft Carrier, not unlike the CVN USS Enterprise.

Starships... The backbone of the United Federation of Planets' exploration and defense fleet. Beautiful, awe-inspiring vessels that glide effortlessly from star system to star system. Every officer and enlisted crewmember in the Fleet is justifiably proud to serve on any starship. But, there's more...
The most overlooked aspect of the Federation's defense is the vital need for specially trained ground forces to operate on a planet - instead of from orbit. The mighty ships of Starfleet have the power to devastate a planet, but are incapable of quelling a riot. They can level entire cities with phaser energy, but can't stop a civil war. They can take on twice their number of adversaries, but can't destroy a specific enemy entrenchment. Starships have incredible capabilities, but there are simply some things they will never be able to do. Fortunately, the Starfleet Marines can!
The Starfleet Marines. Just the name sends chills down the collective spine of hostile commanders throughout the galaxy. The enemies of the Federation know that an attack on the Federation or on any of her people will not go unnoticed or unanswered. While the ships of Starfleet battle them in space, the Starfleet Marines will pound them on the surface.
Marines are specially trained for planetary operations of every kind - from covert landings to full-scale defensive warfare. The Marines are the Federation's best weapon against an enemy presence on a member world, are the only hope for removing any enemy that manages to gain a foothold.
