Template:InfoBoxStateUnit In 3026 Takashi Kurita ordered the creation of a BattleMech unit trained in the tactics of the Wolf's Dragoons mercenary unit. He later ordered that the Ryuken were to be split into several companies and each was to expand to regimental size. The Ryuken-san was one of the units formed.
History
A notoriously tight-lipped unit, the Ryuken-san rarely commented one way or the other about the acceptability of a military mission, nor did they communicate reliably with the upper chain of command (suggested as a result of their experiences on Misery). The unit sought to perform the mission exactly as directed, with no attempts at casual interpretation of the orders nor a supporting deportment that implied a responsibility towards allied units, if not so directed. This attitude was apparently incorporated at the indoctrination phase for newer members, and documented in one well-known incident when the unit failed to report an enemy's apparent lack of expected numbers, resulting in a coordinated retreat by the regiment, and heavy casualties for their fellow Draconian unit.
Officers
Chu-sa Heather Coleman was the commander of the Ryuken-san's aerospace wing, the Falling Skies, circa 3058. She graduated from the Aerospace and Interstellar Institute with high scores and rumors of various exploits in which she was engaged. She was rumored to have docked with an undocumented clan's WarShip for the purpose of engaging in a simulator battle with one of their pilots.
Tactics
The unit displayed a talent for psychological operations, along with precise formations and maneuvers and the minimum radio communications necessary. Even their weapons engagements were noted for the precise and regimented control, especially when combined against enemy 'Mechs.
