Aridia residents, Lowsechnaya Sholupen [-LSH-] who are colloquially known as #REKKINGRUSKI, destroyed a Wyvern-class supercarrier on the 22nd of April. Making this their third supercapital kill within a week following this Ragnarok and this Nyx which is a testament to their growing presence as supercapital hunters.
The Wyvern, owned by XtraPain of alliance The Blood Covenant [VIT.C], was caught moving through the system of Yehaba on Wednesday evening. The officer smartbombs and sensor booster greatly increased the value of the kill making it the most expensive in since February.
[-LSH-] member Rad1st noticed a cynosural field at a safe in the system of Vehan in the morning of the 22nd. The hunters quickly identified the cyno pilot and found an association with another pilot in system: CrazyDK, according to Rad1st.
Later on in the day, the cyno pilot logged on and [VIT.C] pilots began to move around Aridia. Another [-LSH-] member, 3Better, was consulted in order to investigate the purpose of the cyno. Killboard analysis found a connection between the cyno and XtraPain’s Wyvern.
Through the use of a locator agent, the hunters confirmed the location of the pilot as Vehan and tracked the movement of CrazyDK to Yehaba. The hunters moved heavy interdictors to neighbouring systems of Yehaba in preparation for supercapital movement.
As [-LSH-] had created an illusion of safety by clearing out Yehaba of their pilots, XtraPain logged on and jumped out of Vehan. As the scout watched the Wyvern leave Vehan, [-LSH-] heavy interdictors jumped into Yehaba and attempted to scan down the super.
Although the three heavy interdictors, piloted by 3Better, Sacred Badger and Rad1st, only attained 100% scan results on the 3rd attempt, the Wyvern was quickly decloaked when the heavy interdictors landed. The video, produced by an [-LSH-] pilot, reveals the demise of the Wyvern:
With increased supercapital movement in preparation for incoming sovereignty changes, hunters local to Aridia and Derelik are becoming increasingly active in killing stray supercarriers and titans.
