HCS aircraft attacked by Lornacan jet

Two A-84 fighter bombers have come under attack from what appears to be an executive jet fitted with air-to-air missiles. The fighters were approached by the jet in the north of the main Lornacan continent and then fired on them with what sigint indicates was an old AA-10, a Clone built missile that has been widely exported but now is very obsolete.

The HCS report states that the fighters took evasive action but the missile veered off course in any case, it is thought the Lornacan pilot was too inexperienced and fired too early. One of the A-84s chased after the jet which tried to escape and shot it down with an AAM. Intelligence reports indicate there may be other Lornacan "fighter jets" like this and air-to-air patrols will be increased.
