SILENT THREAT MISSION 5

Fighter squadron: Description:


Background

Reconnaissance has observed a small Shivan cruiser group, designated Hellfire, en route to the Delta Serpentis jump node. If Hellfire reaches its destination, it will be reunited with the primary Shivan fleet.
Hellfire consists of four cruisers, both Cain and Lilith class, with a fighter escort of ten to fifteen ships.
Your squad will intercept and destroy as much of the Shivan force as possible. Beta and Delta will engage the cruisers. Alpha and Gamma will defend the bomber wings and neutralize the fighter threat.

Walkthrough

After listening to the briefing, get to the loadout page. There are actually two ways to customize your loadout:

  1. Start loading bombers for you and your wingmen, and bombs of course. Use Prometheus and Avengers, since this are the most powerful lasers for bombers. Also carry some missiles, but powerful missiles such as hornets.
  2. The same as above, except you take disrupters. Do the same for wingmates.
  3. Take a fighter with a good loadout of secondaries.

When you begin, target Hellfire 1 and order one wing to start disabling it. Do the same for the other Hellfire, however, you don't join your wing to destroy one Hellfire. Target a Hellfire which is a Cain. It should be easy, since Hornets and Tsunamis are not friendly to a Cain. However, if you take the disrupters with you, target the engines instead. However, use bombs in combination.

If you chose a fighter, instead of you bravely taking down the cruisers, why don't you be so kind as to protect your wingmen! I am sure Command would appreciate it...

Once your wingmen have taken down all cruisers, tell them to engage enemies. When there only junk left in that place, return to base. Easy as it sounds!

Notes

Only Hellfire 1 is Lilith class, the other cruisers are Cain class. Please do not confuse these vessels with the Demon class destroyer from the official FS1 multiplayer mission Unstoppable, which is also called Hellfire.
