This mission starts easily enough but soon gets hard.

The best way I have found to avoid getting identified in the first section is to fly over the top of the base keeping a fair distance above it. The craft trying to id you don't move from a flat plane. Once you have been given clearence head for the Nav Bouy.

When you arrive in the next area you must still not get identified so head to the right so the base is just out of view. When you are given landing clearence head into the base and dock. Find the shuttle Tyderium in your CMD and save it to a preset. You should call for reinforcements early, about when MK says 'I wonder what is taking them so long.

When the docking is finished head out and destroy the Tie Fighters that are attacking you as quickly as possible, the Tyderium will soon launch from the base and a load of Bombers will appear. The destruction of these Bombers is vital to the completion of the mission so see them off as fast as you can. You will have to try your best to ignore fighters that are attacking you as you are much stronger that the shuttle. As soon as the shuttle has left head out as fast as possible.
