You don't need to shoot the fighters down. Tell your wingmen to protect you and then fly to the airfield and drop some bombs.

my other half has been playing this mission for 2 days and hes still stuck even after reading all these. so can someone please post an idiots guide?

hes not sure what the transporters are are they the things on the ground or are they the planes and are the planes the ones with the red bit above them?

If he's flying Arcade or Realistic, the main objectives ie Ju-52 Transports are indicated by yellow arrows. They look like this.

I know how a lot of people feel about this mission – after several fairly easy missions this one comes along and “BAM”, it’s 10 times harder! I have spoken to many pilots on line and basically it comes down to this - skill, the seasoned pilots get on their targets and take them down rapidly and move onto the next wave of bombers with no screw-ups, the IL 2 that your flying is so slow that if you have to break off and chase down just one run away bomber you will run out of time, you might as well restart and try again – don’t even bother to continue. I am new to flight Sims and it took me a good part of yesterday to beat this mission, good thing I was off for Labor Day! I also read the great advice above from Soviet Ace (Thanks by the way Ace) which helped tremendously. Don’t worry, you’ll get it, just remember it is all about speed and precision…and the bright side of all of this is that when you do finally beat this mission – you will be a better pilot!

Actually I found this mission not that hard. Remember that you have rockets at your disposal and those JU-52s are really big targets
