Court Martial Proceedings If it pleases the court, following the conclusion of an independent investigation, the Mouse-appointed trial counsel asks to move forward with the general court martial of G W "MadDog" K (Ghost 1-1) for negligent homicide and dereliction of duty. These offenses arise from a friendly fire incident on June 18, 2028. Counsel seeks to prove that, in his actions on that day, the accused performed a negligent act with the absence of due care for the safety of others, exhibiting a lack of care that a reasonably careful person would have exercised under the same or similar circumstances. The accused had a duty to perform an Identification, Friend or Foe (IFF) interrogation before firing upon an unknown target, and willfully neglected to perform this action without reasonable excuse, resulting in the death of friendly forces and the loss of an aircraft. Exhibit A: SUV-27 Fire Control System A trained pilot in command of a Sukhoi Su-27 variant, including the Shenyang J-11A license-built version which the accused was piloting during the incident, will perform an IFF interrogation before prosecuting a target. Performing this action does not alert the target to the presence of another aircraft, and requires only a fraction of a second to complete. The process is accomplished with the SUV-27 Fire Control System in the following manner: Using the J11's OEPS-27 electro-optical sighting system, or infrared search and track (IRST), system, the pilot will acquire a target. Once the target has been locked, the pilot issues a command to illuminate the target with the "radar on" command. While locked on a target in EO mode, this command does not result in radar lock, but instead performs an IFF interrogation, returning symbology to indicate whether the locked EO target is a friend "AFR" or foe "A" on the HUD.  Fig. 1: A friendly target locked in EO mode and interrogated, returning "AFR" on the left side of the HUD.  Fig. 2: An enemy target locked in EO mode and interrogated, returning "A" on the left side of the HUD. A pilot claiming the title of "Ace" can reasonably be expected to understand the capabilities of their aircraft to this basic degree, as well as the need to follow established protocols when engaging a target. In light of this failure, it is apparent that the accused willfully neglected to perform their duty, and in failing to do so, caused the destruction of friendly forces. Counsel asks that the court find the accused guilty of negligent homicide and dereliction of duty and recommends the following punishment for these offenses:

Counsel recognizes the accused has hired private representation, and asks that the costs be made public record and deducted from the accused's mercenary fund (or debts). In response to the defense counsel's statements regarding the events that resulted in the friendly fire incident, let the record show that there is no acknowledgment of the accused's failure to perform an IFF interrogation, only excuses as to why the accused mistakenly targeted a friendly aircraft, followed by a litany of irrelevant information and speculation. Counsel has no comment on the hypothetical outcome of what the enemy MiG-25PD would or would not have done, as the current timeline was irreversibly established once the accused killed Stingray 1-1. To insinuate that the accused did not commit homicide simply because Stingray 1-1's fate was already sealed, by a plane that never launched on him no less, is preposterous. Defense counsel's mention of $800 million in damages to enemy assets is indeed impressive, but entirely irrelevant. As is the security of the Magical Kingdom HQ. Pure conjecture. The accused's culpability—not worth—is being decided in this courtroom. As for the operating conditions, there were no fewer than 16 other Corporation aircraft operating in the same environment, and the accused is the only one of them to commit fratricide. Ultimately, it is defense counsel's own statement that damns the accused: "The decision to fire was split second after the lock." It is this action that shows a lack of care and a dereliction of duty. The accused failed to follow procedure and Stingray 1-1 died because of it.

Trial counsel politely reminds defense counsel that it is highly unethical, and illegal, to change recorded testimony through editing posts.
