SILENT THREAT MISSION 10

Fighter squadron:
Description: Investigation of GTI Activity in Ross 128


Background

We have set course for Ross 128, site of the first Shivan contact. GTI operatives have been active in this system, and we must investigate. Your mission will be to inspect the wreckage from the original Shivan assault.
Ross 128 is currently under Shivan control. There are no other Terran forces in this system. You will need to complete your mission quickly. Scan the wreckage and return to base.

Walkthrough

As you jump in, you'll find 7 wings of fighters, 2 Leviathans, and 1 Lilith in a heated battle. Don't let all those wings make this mission harder than it needs to be. Tell all your wingmen to form on your wing, make sure that you are stopped, and sit there. The Shivans and the GTI will fight, with the GTI ultimately winning. However, the Lilith will knock out a lot of GTI fighters, and by the time that the Lilith is gone, the GTI will have no more than 6 fighters left. Then just raid the remaining fighters and pound on the severely weakened cruisers to complete the mission.
