Encounter Description :Immediately after Black_12's ship being disabled I tracked his escape pod for safety and engaged [XTF]-Helheim[R. After some heated dogfight I was shocked to see a Liberty Carrier straight up shooting my target without regard for gun safety or naval combat procedures.
Outcome : With the pilot visibly distressed and occupied I decided to leave the area and take Black to Trenton Outpost, where medical staff confirmed he is well and combat ready, with just a scratch. I can attest the previous report's facts, being there and witnessing Blacks fast response, unwavering commitment to duty, sense of decency when not engaging a foe in uneven odds and strong skills in the cockpit.
I also want to note that as a professional member of the 46th I'm not only bound by the Laws of Liberty, the policies of our great Navy and the CoC of the Strike Force, but gravely against unfair and uneven fights. While this [XTF]-Helheim[R] is truly an unlawful pilot at the service of criminal interests in Liberty, I witnessed him being engaged in heavy handed ways before, and that happened again. Liberty Law is better than that. I prefer to lay my life for Liberty than to call for Capital Ship fire on a enemy fighter.
I'm working towards improvement as a pilot and while not all Naval officers need to comply with the Code of Conduct of the 46th I needed to make it perfectly clear that I did NOT call for Cap support and DISENGAGED when I found myself in a situation that could breach our CoC. Engaging targets with decency is the least we can do to maintain public support and not give the Insurgents any propaganda piece.
I promise to spend time in the simulator to improve my dogfighting and I hope next patrols will bring better results.
