Galaxy Commander Ernest Binetti was the commander of Iota Galaxy, and Bloodnamed warrior of the Binetti Bloodhouse, from at least 3145 to 3151.[1][2]
History
Binetti led Iota Galaxy from the Jesenice based Third Falcon Swoop Cluster as of 3145.[1]
Binetti remained in command of this Galaxy during the Battle of Terra in 3151, participating in Clan Jade Falcon's Africa campaign. Landing on day T+36 of the Battle, Binetti and her Galaxy made planetfall in the Sinai Peninsula, where they were opposed by Knight Raul Ortega and the Alexandria Defense Force. Binetti's Falcons were however able to out-maneuver their Republic of the Sphere opponents, landing the 5th Talon Cluster on the opposite side of Alexandria, and quickly taking the lightly defended city.
Sir Ortega then attempted to draw the Falcons into Sinai Desert via a mock retreat, but this was recognized by Binetti as bait for a trap, and therefore only pursued slowly. This caution was not however enough the avoid all of the Republic's ambushes, which caused the Falcon's significant casualties.[2] Responding by deploying his own aerospace Trinary from the Third Falcon Swoop Cluster, Binetti launched a bombing raid on the RAF airbase at Khartoum, which despite 50% losses including Binetti's own pointmate, which successful in stripping northeast Africa of Republic aircover.
At the same time, Binetti's armor and solahma infantry were able to locate the remaining ambush points prepared by Ortega, turning the Falcons from hunted to hunter. Binetti was not however able to rout the Alexandria Defense Force, as it fell back in good order all the way back to the Suez Canal, where a desperate holding action on day T+42 allowed Ortega and his Command Company to retreat deeper into Egypt.[2]
