"A Man Who Lived For Battle"
Erich's squad consists of four F-14D Super Tomcats & an EA-6B Prowler used for radar jamming. Like the Rot squadron, Schnee's F-14D's are capable of using XLAA's for long-range attacks. After inflicting critical damage to enemy forces in the Southern Front (possibly Osean Forces) and wiping out dozens of Ustian aircraft, they were sent to the frontline.
Hillenberand's only goal was to live his life as a regular ace pilot in the Air Force. He never had any great ambitions, nor was he interested in promotions or awards, earning him his title of 'Eternal 2nd Lieutenant', despite his skill & experience. He also never liked belonging to a specific group and rarely co-operates with his allies, but they have a complete trust in him during combat.
During Operation Battle-Axe (Mayhem), Schnee Team were assigned as reinforcements to maintain air superiority over The Round Table. After most of their allies were shot down by Galm Team, Schnee Team fought Galm, but were defeated. During the battle, Hillenberand was shot down and managed to bail out. Rather than wait for the rescue party to come, Hillenberand went on a three-day journey walking to the nearest air base he could possibly find. After the war, he retired from the Air Force and now works as a pilot instructor in Jackson Hill Airport, North Osea.
