"Failed", when it comes to some mission types, wouldn't only mean that the Huntsman was KIA, though. In village defense, it could mean the village was destroyed. In search and rescue, it could mean the Huntsman couldn't find the person they were searching for or failed to rescue them. In escort, it could mean that whoever they were escorting was killed. "Failed" would be just as vague.

"Terminated" means something was brought to an end, yes, but people whose first language is English tend to use it to mean that the ending was under negative circumstances. To native English-speakers, "Terminated" isn't really that neutral. While it is vague, it's more efficient to put one catch-all term for all kinds of failures for all the various mission types than to go into detail.
