Template:InfoBoxStateUnit

The one of the Sun Zhang MechWarrior Academy's cadre units, cadets assigned to the 16th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre are put to the ultimate test by seeing real combat.

History

The unit was built around soldiers who were originally going to be posted to the 13th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre and 15th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre. The unit was formed on New Samarkand, but once it reached full strength it redeployed to Luthien.[1]

Formation


Operation Bulldog


Dominion War

The 16th spent three years on Atria, bringing that system under Combine rule.[2]

Federated Suns Incursion


Jihad

During the Jihad the Sixteenth SZAC spent most of it's time traveling along the Combine-Ghost Bear Dominion border, including Idlewind and Kiamba. These trips were to deter any renegade Rasalhaugian units from raiding the Combine. At the same time, the more experienced warriors of the Sixteenth Cadre were shuttled to Kessel to replace losses suffered by the 5th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre. These warriors were replaced by new graduates from the Sun Zhang MechWarrior Academy.[3]

Officers

The commanding officer in 3059 is Tai-sa Fabier.[1]

Tactics

The commander of the air wing, Sho-sa Steve Johannson, trains the cadets in anti-aircraft tactics.[1]
