During the [[Jihad]] the Fifth took massive losses during [[Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE]] and [[Operation THUNDERSTRIKE]]. They invaded [[Ares (system)|Ares]] as part of Sovereign Justice and fought the [[Fourth McCarron's Armored Cavalry]] regiment. Between the Fourth McCarron and a surprise assault by the [[Blackwind Lancers]], the Fifth was almost completely destroyed.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade'', p. 224</ref> By the end of the [[Jihad]], barely a battalion of 'Mechs were left and the supporting regiments were in similar shape. The High Command redesignated the Syrtis Fusiliers units as [[Light Combat Team]]s for the foreseeable future. This redesignation meant that the Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers are close to full strength. The reclassification also allows the High Command to produce defensive units that are not likely to start new conflicts before the [[AFFS]] has recovered from the previous one. They recently received a company's worth of [[Hauberk]] battle armor suits.<ref name="fra15">''Field Report: AFFS'', p. 15</ref>
