As Caitlin stands about looking over the new and 'improved' Pegasus 411, the other half of their hunting pair comes cruising in on a billow of air skirts. The rush of wind cranks up the wind chill, making it just unpleasant as Harasser 412 pulls in to park by 411.
To her trained eye, 412 is a smoking wreck and it's a miracle that its limped in. Half the air skirts were gone, bleeding air pressure and cutting down it's nimble speed. The Turret was all but blown off, and only the exo frame that once supported the heavy armor remains. Harsh laser scorch marks, and the crater blast marks from autocanon or missile fire gouged great chucks of armor out of the scrappy hover tanks surface.

Harasser 411 has seen better days. Floating through an infantry ambush while on patrol was not a good way to start an encounter. A pair of Panther cinched, that it was going to be one of those days. The engagement was really short, you cut the fan to flank speed and you ran like hell, the parting trade of fire didnt go well for you at all.
Infantry SRM had penetrated the failing armor in the turret and had taken out Milo. Its open to debate if the shrapnel killed him outright or not. It was a moot point, because by the time you were far enough away and at a safe distance he was a goner.
Pursuit had given up on you. 411 was simply too fast to be caught by those sluggards so you did the only thing you could do. Limp home and bury the dead. You manage to make it to the R&D base in the late afternoon.
