Lieutenant Hudson Sloan was a member of the Air Lance, Fourteenth Recon Company, Seventeenth Recon Battalion, Seventy-first Light Horse Regiment of the Eridani Light Horse as of 3058.[1]
History[edit]
Sloan fought in the Battle of Coventry against Clan Jade Falcon as part of the Coventry Expeditionary Force (CEF). On 10 May 3058, Sloan was part of an attempted CEF air strike against the city of Lietnerton on Coventry comprised of fighters from the Skye Rangers and Eridani Light Horse, which was intercepted by a combat air patrol of Falcon OmniFighters from Echo Wing 2, Trinary Echo (Aerospace Fighter Trinary) of the Fifth Battle Cluster.
The Falcon patrol was able to prevent the CEF fighters from launching the majority of its air-to-ground weaponry, but both sides suffered heavy losses in the intense air battle.[1]
Aerospace Fighter[edit]
Sloan was known to pilot a SPR-6D Sparrowhawk light aerospace fighter.[1]
Notes[edit]
The Battle of Coventry indicates, on page 55, that Sloan's Fourteenth Recon Company forms part of the Eleventh Recon Battalion.[1] However, as noted elsewhere in that book[2] and in the Mercenary's Handbook,[3] it actually forms part of the Seventeenth Recon Battalion.
