Mission ThemeWalt fires on 1-4 and then checks his surrounding for anyone attempting to tail him.
1-4 goes down in flames and many, many pieces.
"Walt, stay on 'im!" Richard breezes past the Rafale and heads straight for the bandit tailing Tempest. He fires all three guns.
All three guns hit center mass, and the Rafale is destroyed in an instant.
Jaakko cloaks and moves on to more pressing matters.
"Sabre, do you need assistance or can I assist the ground forces?!" Jaakko yells.
"Crash, Sabre, negative! Continue supporting the ground forces!"
"Copy!"
Jaakko redirects his attention to the ground, calling on multiple channels, seeing if any of them lead him in to contact with friendly ground forces.

The transmission cuts abruptly, as a walker starts firing on the control tower windows with a pulse laser.
Gus breaks off and performs evasive maneuvers.

Tippy scales the massive machine and crawls into the roosterpit only to realize there was an access ladder literally right near it. She rolls her eyes and slides into the seat to give the controls a look-over.
Pulling yourself up to the roosterpit, you get a good look at the controls and are bewildered as to how familiar they are. To the left, there's a throttle; the right, a control stick; on the floor in front of the seat are two pedals; there's even an ignition switch in a very similar position to the one in the Jaguar. Owing to your skill of basic inference, you can hazard a guess as to what everything does (throttle controls speed, stick controls head movement, pedals steer). Where you would expect the landing gear toggle to be, there is instead a switch labeled with tape reading "DOCKING CLAMP RELEASE".
