took me a couple attempts at this mission, but it wasnt all that bad.

you have to shoot down ALL transports, cant let a single one go through. I found it easier to shoot down the planes by zoom n boom from above, so i just stayed at 1800 meters or so and i would be looking below me for the planes. Usually got one on the first pass or at least heavily damaged it, by the time i turned around behind them, couple bursts and the planes were toast.

just have to shoot them down ASAP, and you cant let them get past the area w/ the flood lights on the ground. There are 6 waves of transports, and after that you gotta go bomb like 1 thing on the ground and the mission is over.

dont forget to give orders to your squad. That always helps.

this is how i did this mission and i kept pressing right on the d-pad to give the follow objective wich is to attack the transports also if you press it twice quickly it tells all the avalible planes to attack i forgot this at first and only one would attack the transports

hope this helps

Or you can press down and then right which tells all planes to proceed to the target anyway

Hi fellow comrades!!!!!!!!!!!!

well its official this game is really testing my patients, tried it again last night, and i managed to shoot 30 down, there were no more waves but still one yellow dot on the compass which i cant get to coz it says return to battlefield. Im beginning to think its just not meant to be! Has anyone had this same problem or is it just my game and machine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also do you have to keep continuosly telling other planes to keep attacking the transports??????

Gonna bail out soon.......
