This can be the easiest mission in the whole game if you performed well in the previous mission. If not, you still have work to do because the Sathanas can take out the Colossus even with one beam turret operational. Fortunately, due to differences in timing, FPS, maneuvering, etc., the Colossus is usually safe once you're down to one turret. If the flak guns are still operational you may want to order your wingmen to take them out for you.
The Basilisks can be really annoying, but you can usually take several out with Trebuchets at long range before you engage the Sathanas. Fortunately, there are only eight of them, as opposed to the multitude in Bearbaiting, so when the second wave arrives, just order your wingmen to cover you. If you've gotten all four turrets, of course, feel free to take them out yourself to get credit for the extra kills.
You can ensure you get the kill for the Sathanas by making sure you inflict more damage on it than any of your wingmen. If your wingmen are busy with the Basilisks or if you've ordered them to depart, this should be pretty easy. After a 10 minute exchange of beam fire, the Sathanas throws in the sponge.
