History

As at 3059 the Aegis-class heavy cruiser Red Talon was serving as the CJF Red Talon, one of nine Aegis-class vessels serving in the Jade Falcon touman, operating alongside the CJF Black Talon, CJF Blue Talon, CJF Frost Falcon, CJF Gold Talon, CJF Jade Talon, CJF Hawk Eye, CJF Janice Hazen and CJF White Talon.[1] The Red Talon would continue to be an active part of the touman throughout the next decade[2] and into the beginnings of the Jihad.

The Red Talon was a part of the combined Jade Falcon/Lyran Alliance Armed Forces task force responsible for the liberation of Coventry from a blockade established by the Word of Blake during the Jihad. The Task Force attacked on the 16th of March and had freed the system within five days, destroying the Blakist Aegis-class WoBS Immortal Spirit in the process.[3]

It isn't known if the Red Talon survived the Jihad and the Wars of Reaving.[4]
