Background
Pilots are pilots from the Black Knights Squadron and AWACS pilots for the United States Air Force.
During the events of Independence Day (1996) played by Mark Fite and Eric Neal Newman
Radar Techs tell Pilots that side radar is picking up nothing. The Pilots relay this information, but their AWACS explodes when it makes contact with a suddenly appearing large object. Later, Captain Watson briefs his pilots on their planned counter-attack on the alien spaceships. Capt. Steven Hiller and the rest of the Black Knights squadron head towards the spaceship hovering over Los Angeles. The Black Knights attack, but find out the spaceships have shields and are then attacked by smaller spaceships that also have shields and one of the Pilots is killed when his jet rams into the spaceship.
