Earth is gone, but the war in Sol is not over, yet. There is even still a military project in development on a research station in the Asteroid Belt. To maintain our chances, we have to evacuate this station and must protect this project!
Hints:
In this mission, your orders for your wingmates are crucial for success.
The Cyclone aswell the Tornado are a piece of crap, do not expect to hit something with its primary guns. If you are more comfortable with missilies, the Tornado should be your ship of choice here, but it lacks some armor and shield strength.
Ignore every enemy capital ship, your allies will handle them.
If you play this mission with a 3.6.13 build, like i did, it is a very dark mission, because there is no sun here. If you play this mission in a more recent build, it is brighter, because since 3.6.14 a mission has always at least one default sun, again.
Bombers should have always your highest priority, not least, you can hit them even with your primaries.
The landing sequence on the Fuyukaze can be a challenge, so wait until the Ship has set its course and then you should have enough time to overtake it, turn around and to land in the front hangar.

Questions and Feedback in German and English would be appreciated, but is also possible in French, Spanish and Chinese, because my sister is able to read and understand it. But do not expect an answer in the same language.
