Biography
Estovakian Civil War
Rosandic was a member of the Estovakian Naval insurgent Independent Tariff Federation, a faction during the Estovakian Civil War. He served as the flight instructor of the Rousalka Team where he would lead his squadron to be known as Estovakia's "Deadliest Naval Squadron".
However, his squadron lost that title at the hands of a crushing Lyes United Front surprise attack. The Rousalka Team was then absorbed into the Lyes United Front where it would continue to fly combat missions.
Rosandic and his team were at one point sent to take control of an Island Coalition base but were unsuccessful in their mission. The Estovakian ace, Ozren Milos callsign Kentavr played a key role in repelling the Rousalka Team's attack on the base during the civil war. The Lyes United Front not being able to capture the base from the Island Coalition led to the eventual loss of the civil war at the hands of the Eastern Faction. [2]
Emmeria-Estovakia War
The "Devil Instructor" Goran Rosandic flew on the frontlines of the war against the Emmerians. He fought to reclaim the former honor of Rousalka Team's name and aimed to reclaim the title of Estovakia's "Deadliest Naval Squadron". However, this goal was cut short when he was shot down over the skies of San Loma during its liberation by the Emmerians.
