Description A commission for Ronin201 .  

F-15E 91-0611 was the assigned mount of 1st Lieutenant Matt "Prince" Hall and 2nd Lieutenant Henry "Marshall" Collins of the 245th Tactical Fighter Squadron "Paladins" during the war with Belka in 1995, appropriately nickamed "The Prince's Stallion," a reference to its usual pilot.

"The Stallion" was unfortunately lost  to a Belkan MiG-29 following a strike mission near the city of Fehlstein on June 2, 1995.  The crew ejected safely and was rescued by Osean AFSOC CSAR assets and Osean Marines several days later.

"The Stallion" is shown here in the most common load flown by the 245th:  2 AIM-9M Sidewinders, 2 AIM-120B AMRAAMs, a full load of GBU-12 Paveway II laser guided bombs, and a pair of drop tanks.

Nice tribute to the Stallion. Now we just need a suitable "White Knight" joke about Hall.
