The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong
Pilots:
- Major Pitak Puzaki
- 1st Lieutenant Marsha Shannon
Ship Type:
- Scimitar's; assigned to the TCS Eagle's Talon
Mission:
- Refugee ships are flooding the system. A Kilrathi carrier is moving this way. Civilians are fleeing the devastation inflicted by a massive Kilrathi raid on the three planets. Water and fuel supplies are low in many areas. Beta Wing is ordered to escort a Drayman, loaded with civilians, to the safety of the Eagle's Talon.
Synopsis:
- Four Salthi jumped when 42,000 kilometers from the Drayman's jump point. Break and attack ordered and all Salthi destroyed using guns. Basic strategy was to maneuver into a rear or side attack, where their defenses are weakest. In following position, we saved guns until they looped up or down.
Three Krant destroyed 10,000 kilometers from the jump point. Slides, roll and turn are effective as we use Darts against the weak sides, followed by mass drivers. Two more Krant attack and we use almost constant bursts of the afterburners to evade their attacks and maneuver into a favorable attack position. One is downed with a Javelin HS, one with guns.
At rendezvous with Drayman, we position ourselves to the rear and set speed to 120 KPS. Four Gratha initially attack the Drayman, but all respond to taunts. Targets attempt to lead us away from the transport, but we constantly shift attack to the closet enemy fighters. Two destroyed with Javelins from the rear, two hit and killed with mass drivers. One enemy pilot ejects and we radio his location to space rescue units.
