Don't go chasing the bombers let them come to you in the battle zone then take them out.

ok...i've shot down 34 ju's and i still fail this mission. what am i doing wrong?!

where is this air field?

hello everyone btw!!

The nest is hard!

Hi all,
this is one tough mission. Just like an end of level boss in Killzone on the PSP. Still battling on and will try your suggestions. What a fantastic game though?

I think of a wave as 3 bombers but to meet the objective, shooting down 1 is enough(?)

Anyway, after the bombers i had to destroy FLAK. Well even that was done by my squad:)

So, nice night mission but I hardly saw anything:)

Same experience.

I think that we have to shot down all the plane. I failed one time.

One of the rare mission where we have also to rely one our wingmans to finish the job and find some junkers that you let pass through.

Don't forget to ask them to go on the objectives (Command down and then up)

i keep getting that happen to me.......... gonna give up soon.....

I played this mission first time yesterday on SIM. I thought it would be extremely difficult. Well, true i couldn't see shit, no really, i hardly saw anything (reverting to virtual cockpit to see a little bit more)

But i finished it in 1 run and real easy. Every time i send my sqaud to the next objective. NEVER chase/bothered with other (non-objectives) enemies. And while *I* didn't see sh*t and only had 1-2 lucky take-downs, my fellow squad pilots must have taken down the other objectives (5 waves or so??). ... they reported so anyway.

OK…this post (and others) have gotten my attention…there must be something “different” you need to do to make this campaign easy…I had to shoot down almost every bomber – the AI wingmen were useless! Why is maxqubit’s mission so easy????? Why are his wingmen so strong and he only has to kill a few bombers (“only had 1-2 lucky take-downs”)…I did this campaign in arcade and it seemed much harder then all the other campaigns…maybe doing it in SIM (or realistic) is easier because the AI wingmen do all the work? Just a thought, but I have noticed the people who did it in SIM mode say it is “no problem” while the arcade mode seems so difficult…could it be a glitch?

It seems that some of you have problems to go through that mission on Arcade mode.

I recommend to go on realistic/sim. Because You don't have to shoot more than 10 bombers (even less) in those modes (for sim I'm sure because I did it that way; but not for realistic but it is certainly the same)

If you got problems with stalls with your pad. Reduce Elevator sensibility (reduce by half, normally 10/18 it's perfect). Even more if it's too much complicate.

You don't need manoeuvrability in that mission

Hope it will help

All right - for those of you having problems try realistic mode (turn down your elevators at least half way to keep you from stalling) and let us know if this helps.
