This can be a fairly challenging mission if you don't pay attention to what is going on around you.

Once you have joined the rest of the fighters at Bilbringi head for the Viraxo Facility. Your first concern should be the SPC Scylla, using autofire on the gun turrets while circling it will soon take it down.

Your convoy will soon show up and you must defend them, see off any craft that are attacking you as quickly as possible and then attack each fighter that is going for one of the cargo ships, it is important to use your wingmen well to reduce the numbers of Viraxo quickly.

Once the M-CRV shows up you will need to distract it to prevent it from destorying all the escaping fighters as it sits by the hyperspace point. It is not required to destroy it just keep its attention. If you want to destroy it then enlist the help of one of you wingmen to get the job done quickly.

You need to keep and eye on CARG Juno 4 & 6 as they seem to get attacked more often that any of the other transports. There is a bug that I have experienced a couple of times on this mission and that is CARG Juno 4 will either travel very slowly towards hyperspace or not at all. When travelling slowly it does eventually reach hyperspace but never emerges from the other side. If you experience this problem you will have to restart the mission and try again.

Once your ships have entered hyperspace you should wait to recharge your shields and lasers before following them through. At the Vergasso Base some more Sup/F's will appear and attack you, if you have no wingmen left at this point then this can be tough and they can overwhelm you if you are not careful. However if you do have some wingmen left then this is a breeze.

Dock at the Vergasso Base and wait until the docking operation is complete, then head back to the Liberty.
