Description

The Red Eagle was an independent Union dropship in service to the Draconis Combine during the Third Succession War. Not assigned to any particular 'Mech unit, the vessel was famous for its many victories in space. Her hull was scarred and damaged, but no opponent had succeeded in doing serious damage.

During an engagement against Federated Suns forces over Hean III in 2996, the Red Eagle destroyed eight enemy craft. After dropping her compliment of BattleMechs on planet, she fought her way off planet destroying even more Davion ships. Though heavily damaged, the Red Eagle escaped to fight another day.

In 3025, one Ilse Morrow was the captain of this vessel. She was an aggressive commander desiring action in the thick of battle and attracted a crew who agreed with her sentiment.

No information is available upon the fate of the Red Eagle.
