DHS are E level tech, introduced in 3040 in FS with NAIS in serial production before 3044. Well-Equipped(8) enables access to F level tech.

Two things.  First, Well-equipped works differently (check the doc).  Essentially, each 2 points of W-E gives you one free piece of SLDF-era gear (or a single XL engine).  The stuff you get from W-E starts in your warehouse; even with Custom Vehicle it can't start actually installed on your Mech.

Aside from that, yes, FedSuns have access to DHS in 3040; your refit is fine.

Second thing: it's not obvious in the rules doc, but you can burn (as in, lose from your attribute, not threshold) a point of Edge to re-roll a Wingman's Mech.  I'm not saying you should; I'm saying it's an option.

Most of that was intended as fluff justification. Since this yet to be named *cough* Aragorn *cough* character is such a big damn hero (Mary Sue, it just ain't the same without you...). Now I need to find a Firefly clip of Jayne... https://youtu.be/L4oYX3oPB4o

Okay, edits after re-reading change log, and other rules.

1. Skill points were calculated on every 3rd, instead of every 2nd point for outside skills. This leaves 18 points to be distributed. 9 to Piloting/Mech to result in a +5 bonus, 6 to Scrounge for a +3 bonus, and dump the rest into Rifles to raise small arms to +2.

2. Missed the roll and then customize for Custom Vehicle (2), and will go that route. Change purchase of 2 ranks of custom vehicle to upgrade well-connected to well-connected (2)/Fed Suns
Mech Roll
Rolled 1d1000 : 604, total 604
*Winces pressing button*

3. Leave Enemy(1, Ziliang) for Attractive

Dossier 12-3028-57CA-MWO4
Name: Aaron Saltier
Callsign: Aragorn

Born: 1 April 3018
Mother: Marie Salthier née Zhang
Father: Paul Salthier, Baron Chengzhuo, Ziliang (Dossier 06-3004-98CA-MWO7)

Education: Albion Advanced Tactics Military Preparatory School
Basic Training: Albion Military Academy
Mechwarrior Training: Albion Military Academy
Officer Candidate School: Goshen War College
Military Scientist Training: Goshen War College

Unit Affiliation: 1st Federated Suns Armored Cavalry
Severance Rank: Kommandant, CO 3rd Battalion

Service Summary (declassified):
Kommandant Saltier, then Sergeant Saltier, was a member of Bravo Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Federated Suns Armored Cavalry during the 3037 skirmishes and reconnaissance of Menke to welcome the new commander of McCarron's Armored Cavalry (MAC). During the skirmish at the Yaolan River, Bravo Company was ambushed and brought under heavy fire. All of Bravo Company's officers were incapacitated or killed in the opening seconds of the action (Leftenant Rademacher, the senior surviving officer, was medevaced and eventually medically discharged). Sergeant Saltier maintained company cohesion, called in artillery fire support and pushed a counter assault into the ambushing tank company that resulted in the capture of a lance of Rommel Tanks, including the MAC battalion command vehicle. For courage under fire and service above and beyond the call of duty, Sargeant Saltier was awarded the Silver Sunburst and sent to the War College of Goshen for officer training. While there, Sargeant Saltier participated in early deployment trials and strategy testing for new weapons and equipment (ER PPCs and pulse lasers). As a result of his work at Goshen, Kommandant Saltier was slated to return to Ziliang and assume command of 3rd Batallion. He reached Ziliang in time to join the assault on Grand Base during the war of 3039 Case Juliet operation against the Capellan Confederation. His performance during the action was noted in dispatches and 3rd Battallion managed to inflict heavy losses on the Death Commandos. Foloowing the action on Grand Base, he was slated for promotion. However, an assassination attempt on Baron Saltier resulted in injuries requiring significant medical intervention and Kommandant Saltier requested compassionate leave and, eventually, separation. A short time later Baron Saltier succumbed to his wounds and Marie Saltier assumed the title of Baroness Saltier.
