Originally formed as the '''Seventh Confederation Reserve Cavalry''', the Hussars would later receive regular troops. Their aerospace assets participated in fighting at [[Acala]] in [[2905]] and [[Lee]] in [[2930]]. They were defeated each time, but in [[2960]] they raided [[Tecumseh]] and seized six ''[[Lightning (Aerospace Fighter class)|Lightning]]'' aerospace fighters. In [[2977]], they drove the [[12th Vegan Rangers]] off of [[Moravian]]. However by [[2980]] the [[CCAF]] was unable to provide enough supplies to rebuild the unit, and the Hussars were restricted to garrison duties on various worlds in the Sarna Commonality.<ref name=HLp93/>

During the opening phases of the [[Fourth Succession War]], neither of the two battalions were engaged by the [[AFFS]].<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 103</ref> However in the fifth wave of [[Operation RAT]], the First Battalion surrendered after taking heavy casualties on [[Remshield]]<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 39</ref> and the Second surrendered after moderate casualties because of internal conflicts on [[Tsingtao]]. In the Battle of Traitor's Grove, as historians have named it, nineteen 'Mechs and pilots were lost. The survivors surrendered to the [[Davion Heavy Guards]].<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 42</ref>
