I'm not a huge fan of Copperhead as the head of the Cobra Navy, just because he doesn't really seem like a commander to me, but there wasn't anybody else for the job, and he was always a favorite of mine, so I gave it to him.

For me Cobra Commander is on the top of the Cobra hierarchy.Destro supplies weapons for Cobra,Tomax & Xamot are in command of the Crimson Guard,Storm Shadow is in charge of the ninjas,Major Bludd is in charge of recruiting.Firefly and Zartan and his Dreadnoks are mercenaries for Cobra.With the Cobra troops it depends on they want to specialize in,either in environments,air,or in the ground forces.
It's hard to imagine where guys like Croc Master and Raptor would be placed, though. Perhaps they're "on call" for specific jobs, and not part of the Cobra active duty military chain. I'm a big fan of Slice & Dice, along with the Red and Viper Ninja groups, so in my canon they are assassins that report directly to Cobra Commander (or Storm Shadow, if he's Cobra), with Night Creepers and Night Creeper Leader falling under that. Scrap Iron reports to Destro and tests weapons for MARS, and Baroness is practically second in command and reports only to Cobra Commander. In my mind, Cobra is somewhere between an official military, a cult, and a criminal organization like the Mafia. The hierarchy isn't as cut-in-stone as, say, the US Marine Corps or the Pentagon. It's an umbrella of different groups, some definitely military (Wild Weasel and vehicle pilots, Eels, HEAT-Vipers, Astro-Vipers, etc), but groups like the Dreadnoks are pretty much just criminals that can be used for smaller, simpler tasks (although Zartan is in his own league and is an accomplished military intelligence gatherer, not just a thug). But the Iron Grenadiers, I see as being a proper military. Destro would see to that. |

I'm actually working on trying to organize this myself, in my hierarchy I view Troopers at the bottom (I have Tombstone in charge of them), then standard vipers led by Krake, then the specialized vipers, in my joe verse every unit has a leader, to me since some units i.e the snow serpents, eels, cobra claws, neo vipers, frag vipers etc had a specific commander, I want every unit to have a leader, so if I can find an existing character to fill the role I'm using them, including foreign renames of US characters, or I'm creating a new character to fill the role. Then the R&D is headed up by Cesspool and Dr. Mindbender, Tomax and Xamot head up finances and business fronts including the Headhunters, ARBCO industries, and Extensive Enterprises, all funneling money to Cobra, Then Cobra Commander at the top. In my joe verse the Dreadnoks and Zartan are no longer employed by Cobra, and Destro and the Baroness have both left to run MARS.

Yeah, there'd be a world of ex-navy officers out there, you wouldn't give command of your navy, no matter how small, to a swamp boat racer.
But Cobra often made no sense, Zarana gets rank because she's Zartan's sister and somehow holds onto influence even after Zartan is gone or switched sides (comic) or MIA (Dic cartoon). |

And nobody in their right mind would place Tomax & Xamot in command of the Crimson Guard. I mean, put them in charge of finance and running Cobra's "front" organization. What do these circus twin accountants know about bodyguarding, close protection and intelligence gathering?
