Above the surface of Laguna 9, a Terran AAF232 Tigershark ground-attack fighter skims the ground in it's low-level approach to bomb the entrance to the Lagunan city below. A very old design, dating from the end of the Proxima Wars, Tigersharks were later thrown into front-line operations without escorts and suffered heavy losses, before the few remaining craft were withdrawn for second-line fleet defence. Out of the 32 ships that were part of Bernd Gerlings fleet at the start of the campaign, only three returned to Terra.
