Marcus Snow

Marcus Snow (callsign Swordsman) is an Osean Maritime Defense Force pilot. He served in the Belkan War off the carrier OFS Kestrel, as a squadron leader and member of the Razgriz Squadron during the Circum-Pacific War, and again as a squadron leader and again as a Razgriz member in the Lighthouse War. Marcus was killed during Operation Hush in 2019, sacrificing himself to save Eric Trigger Kovac from the Hugin ADF-11F drone.

Death
Marcus, along with other Osean and Erusean fighter squadrons, was one of the pilots to take part in Operation Hush to destroy the two ADF-11F drones. Marcus assisted Razgriz in damaging and destroying Munin 's primary body. However, Marcus's F-14D was severely damaged by Hugin while he was trying to fight it. When Trigger was intercepted by Hugin, Marcus, unable to fire his missiles, used his aircraft as a missile by ramming it into the second drone. He was successful, saving Trigger from being shot down, but the impact tore apart his F-14 and Marcus was killed in the subsequent explosion.

Legacy
Marcus's sacrifice did not go in vain. He destroyed the Hugin drone completely and allowed Trigger, Blaze and Archer to shoot down Munin's command unit.
