Mangler was a pilot on board the TCS Tiger's Claw. He had a highscore on the TrainSim in the Bar.[1]

It seems that Mangler, or another pilot with that callsign, served later on the TCS Concordia. In the Novaya Kiev non-canon losing scenario, Mangler with Dart, Maverick and Doomsday flew a A-17D Broadsword against a Fralthra-class.[2]

Behind the scenes[]

Considering that the name "Mangler" appears obscurely in both Wing Commander I and Wing Commander II: Vengeance of the Kilrathi, it's apparent that it has some in-joke significance for the game designers, although its exact meaning is unknown.

Mangler also appears as the nickname of producer and programmer Jeff Everett in the credits of The Kilrathi Saga.
