{INCOMING TRANSMISSION}
{SUBJECT: PATROL REPORT}

Greetings, members of the BAF,

Today I had my very first true dogfight with an enemy pilot.
While patrolling in London I encountered a Molly unit at Dublin jumpgate.
Identified pilot Bloodwyn on my scanners who was fighting a bounty hunter at the moment. I immediately engaged the enemy unit, but I noticed that he was alread docking into the jumpgate towards London. I tried disabling the tradelane, but it didn't stop him. I pursued him, when he took a 90° turn towards left, I thought he was heading to Trafalgar, but instead he went to open space. Chased him for 15 minutes, I wouldn't want to give up.
The Molly realized he had no other place to run, he turned around and we engaged in a dogfight. He was pounding me with mines (I lost all nanobots and shields in the first half), and he was much more agile than me, but I started using evasive strafes and I was lucky he ran out of mines. He had quite a lot of nanos and shield chargers, but he ran out of them eventually. Slowly but surely I was crippling his hull. When he realized he was a goner, he tried cruising away a few times, but he couldn't run from my Cruise Distruptors. Few more shots, and the fight was over.
Took about 30 minutes, at one point he had the advantage, but I didn't give up. I was constantly reminding myself the lessons and advices of Ens.Dashwood and Ens.Harding from the trainings at Salisbury. They really did pay off.

That's all there is to report right now.
