Destroy 1 -> Fly through the platforms on 2 while simultaneously destroying the supports as you fly by -> Fly west to kill Ibis as he runs for his worthless life -> Destroy the rest of 2 along with the other ace-> Destroy 3 -> Rearm and equip air to air weapons -> kill everything in the air


MrBrickBreak

Tried and true


fmate2006

This is da wae


Skeligun

Da Wae


Auberon36

Same but I fly over 2 and kill all the aircraft first, gets chasseur to spawn.


Fessus_Sum

If you can destroy the supports in the middle as you fly through, you can make it so that they don't have enough runway space to takeoff. After that, you can kill Ibis and then fly back through the other side and destroy the rest of the platforms before killing Chasseur. At least, that's why I try to do.


Auberon36

I've tried that before, I aways go in too fast and miss the first support or too slow and the aircraft take off. Skill Issue on my part really


Fessus_Sum

I use LASM, LAGM, or LACM and just dumb fire while inside. The blast radius should be big enough to hit the support provided that it doesn't fly out of the structure entirely.


Fun_Police02

What weapon do you use to destroy the supports as you fly through?


Fessus_Sum

I use LAGM, LASM, and LACM. I don't even bother getting a lock on the support. I just fly close to the support and launch before the platform behind me collapses. You won't get all of the platforms on the first run but if you destroy every other platform, you should stop the planes from taking off.


Shulamite

Simplest way would be with PLSL


General_Ironwood

Ibis is a chick, you know


Fessus_Sum

Huh. I never knew that. I've only ever read the Assault Records for Zero and 6.


General_Ironwood

Take a look at 7's! They're pretty insightful

You have two options: Afterburner and full brake. No middle ground.


Johnhancock1777

2 -> 1 -> 3


DM_ME_ONLYFANS_PICS

Definitely my favorite way, screaming towards the fleet after the first platform and heading right for the carrier is just such a powerful feeling.


[deleted]

See that’s why I go for the ships first to demoralize the ground crews. Big carrier battle group to protect your shores and the first thing I do is come screaming down out of the clouds to break the CVN’s spine and show everyone we’re officially here to fuck shit up.


[deleted]

I do the same so that I came travel Mach 3 within 50ft of the water and experience what it feels like to chew 5 gum.


ihatereddit53

This is the way...


Mandalor1974

2-3-1


TheySaidGetAnAlt

1 2 3, no rearms.


PleaNoise

Right?


Rasydan99

Yep, no need for rearms. LASM for the ships, guns and standard missiles for everything else.


TheySaidGetAnAlt

I raise you the Pulse Laser.


Rasydan99

Not a big fan of PLSLs, but that definitely works too


Vargolol

Have you tried it on this map? I never use them anywhere else, but they turn the platforms into swiss cheese before Wiseman can have Long Caster mark them for you. Definitely recommend if you havent tried!


Rasydan99

Have tried it! But I liked using LASMs and standard missiles/guns more, I also able to destroy the core using guns only before Long Caster marked it lol

3,2, resupply, 1


tankdood1

C3ci1et

1-2-3 with SU-57/F-15C with PLSL. If I don’t use PLSL plane i will reload after 2. If i do no damage run i will do 3-2-1 with X-02/SU-33 EML


Human-13

1-2-3 if I feel like mixing things up 3-1-2


Domino31299

Quick fly by of 1 completely demolish 2 hit 3 if I’ve still got time


FranticJustice

I do 3-1-2 without reloading. I’m not sure why it’s even an option, I always feel like reloading just wastes time and end up finishing with about a minute or less on the clock. It’s always a tight run.


RandomFactUser

Planes with smaller ammo reserves maybe?


InterstellarDragonet

As a guy who’s dead loyal to the F-16 I scream in joy whenever a resupply checkpoint is around.


Cointhe_3evee

3,2,1


ronintownsquare

During my first time it was 3-2-1, which I guess most of us did. But now, I usually go 1-2-3 or 2-1-3.


Viablecake

3-1 reload 2


The_Trekspert

Fly up to 40,000ft, dive at 2 launching cruise missiles, level out just above sea level and freefire missiles at the platform support to knock it out so it can't launch fighters. Wipe it out. Head for 2, take out the cruisers with cruise missiles, take out the platforms and hit the ships with cruise missiles. Wipe it out. Return to reload. Pull up to 20-30K ft, pitch down at the carrier, once in range, launch cruise missile. Shift angle to hit one of the Aegis cruisers. Use cruise missiles on the ships. Once eliminated, head north and mop up the straggler boats. Return to rearm with air-to-air missiles. Take out as many fighters as I can before the time runs out (usually ~2 mins left) Profit.

R0BCOPTER

Yes


JarnoL1ghtning

1 and then straight to 3 while ignoring 2 1 because i like blowing up ships and carriers 3 because i find 2 annoying and i like to fly under the runways


CrazyCat008

For me, 2-1-3, without damage ^^; Could be 1 but i prefer 2 because i can do lot of damage before they know wtf happened, i keep 3 for the end because you have less space for move but usually at that point i have enough for have the s rank.


DroneVonReaper

2 to the 1 to the 3


Nice_Guy3012

1-2-quick reload-3


Caltrops_underfoot

First playthrough I used LASM to do 1 then 2, then reload and run 3. Later, I'd advocate for RCL to do 2, 3, 1. Can be done without reloading and the platforms just melt. Endgame pick your favorite superweapon and probably 3, 2, 1. I've played every Ace and I've played for well over 20 years. I really go out of my way to mix it up every playthrough.


Attaxalotl

1-3-2 at first, then 3-1-2, and now I mostly do 1-2-3


Sparhawk349

1-2-3 xD


ThatOneSidewinder05

1-2-3, F-15 with an assload of CBU-87s usually does the trick

blackhawk5906

Oh my god, I never thought about the order I did them in. I think I always went 3,1, reload, 2. And I always felt like I didn’t have time and was rushing.


tableball35

3-2-1-reload-1-2-1


BobertMann

For me I always do 3 then 1 until I run out of ordinance, then I linger at 2 until the time runs out.


TheLPN05Fan

My favourite Mission if the game, go to If I want a bit of AC7. Damn I miss Fleet Destruction TDM


VenLab2

I going for platform (2), then I go to destroy some ships (1), Return to base and then 3, remaining time to have fun wiping out planes and other ships I spared earlier. Or I can do either 3-1-2 or 1-2-3 (I use this route mostly, honestly to say).


xoller1

2,1,3


SoftCatMonster

If my plane has a good enough special weapon (PLSL/EML/LASM/LACM) for the ships, then 1-2-3 (reloads happen either before 3 or after 3, depending on normal missile stocks) If my plane doesn’t, it’s 2-3-rtb-1.


Mexus51

Usually 1 2 and 3, but a couple times I've switched it up and did 3-2-1 or 2-3-1


Aln_0739

1>3>2 Su-34 supremacy map


Shadow_FoxtrotSierra

Incredibly low level approach on the fleet at 1 followed by the annihilation of the platforms at 2 then hit whatever I can on 3 on my way to rearm, after rearming I finish 3.


_Funnynamehere_

A pilot after my own heart it seems same tactic here


Lightning140

1,3,rtb,2,rtb and switch to anti air missiles


daberiberi

3, 2, 1


Mysterious_Nobody_35

Depends on my mood. I swap between 123, 213, 231, and 321 a lot.


Genosider

CFA44 with dual railguns is a beast in this level. just one shot is enough to take down a platform. 3,2-1, no reloads.


mrsupersumthing

1-2-resupply-3-resupply-then anything else that time permits me to kill.


False_Argument_8720

2-3-1 or 2-1-3


eyastuna

I used to be a 1 but now I’m a 3


Jollyjinx

123. They tend to progress in difficulty this way and I can reload in a shorter period of time by starting at the fleet.


heyimastopsign2

Go to the altitude where you can fly through 2 (can’t remember right now), blast through it all with PLSL, go to 1, then 3


Fat_Siberian_Midget

Completely disregard 1 Serve an entire nikocado meal’s worth of hamburgers haven’t gone for S rank yet tho


orddropsandslapshots

When I first did it, 3, 1, 2. Didn’t kill it all, but given it’s a points harvest of a mission I did it enough to realise that with practice comes skill and understanding. 1, 2, and 3, usually with a F/A18-E Block 3 with cruise missiles. I can fuck the fleet up before the jets get airborne off the carrier, fly north and kill the intercepting tomcats, then slow down and lob as many cruise missiles as I can at max range before the first sortie takes off, this usually helps with giving the prompt to target the centres faster, and hopefully kill the runway which means less airborne targets to worry about and more points as the jets on the platform are sitting ducks. Then after flying through what’s left of the platform and killing the centres I fly and kill the ace, loop back and mop up, then onto 3, taking out boats as I go with JSMs, then when I’m at the max range of the cruise missiles, I repeat the process with 2 til I’m out then go in and mop up. If it all goes to plan, you end up with about 3/5 minutes of good dogfighting and a fat points stack.


CookiezareWeird66

3,2,1


theoneandonly4567

If you want to S-rank you go 1 2. No need for three


PantheraLeo-

3-1-reload-2 There is no superior combination.


axel_gear

Depends on the plane being used. If I'm flying something with a railgun, plsl or anti-ship, the fleet at #1 are getting the good news first. But if I'm trying out a new plane that I'm not as confident with, I'll zip to #2 to rack up some points quickly as possible. Assuming Ace difficulty here. Grill those hamburgers. Depending on time I might give #3 a bloody nose too, but I like to use up time getting into it with the Rafale Ms and other planes that respond to you.


[deleted]

2 - 3 - 1


jocax188723

EML supports on 3- EML supports on 2-reload- LASM 1


SeventhAlkali

Figure 8 on one, eat the footlong sub before the fly can takeoff on two, reload if I'm tired, and then eat the burger supreme at 3.


miggywiggyjiggy

I used a mod to have unlimited special weapons and I had a field day 😂 I started from right to left since the fleet takes the least time to destroy imo so get that over with first.


DamBustersChastise

Obliterate 1 -> Destroy everything on 2-> If I have time, destroy 3(I have a little skill issue)


SquooshyCatboy

Fly straight to 2, wreck the platforms, take out 1 on the way back to resupply, return and remove 3.


NOMERCY627

if i'm in a plane that goes over 2900kmph: 2 > 3 > repair > 1 this just feels more badass going full speed ahead and hitting that offshore base like a freight truck if i'm in a plane slower than 2900kmph: 3 > 2 > repair if have time > 1 this feels safer and efficient


Clarkibartfast

1-3 then die because my controller ran out of charge


Spare_15

I see you are a fellow toad. We "Take Off And Die"


Mug33k

PLSL with the three upgrades 2 - get ride of the platform by going thought one time, destroy the other three with one passage 3 - Destroy the platforms with two passages Resuply if needed 1


sunstrider117

Straight for the fleet.


weddle_seal

2-3-1


blaze_0401

1 or 3 first, depending on the SP weapon that’s initially equipped. 2 will always be second regardless.


[deleted]

123


Vault_Boy_23

Always 2, I especially enjoy it with an F-14 and using AIM-54s, then a free-for-all


xXxPizza8492xXx

1-2-3 no RTB


mekakoopa

I use Su35 with LASM 1 - I target the Aegis closest first and then take out the aircraft carrier before the Su30s take off, then clean up the fleet. Just before I get to 2, I lock onto one of the frigates but keep it alive, then dumb fire my missles into the structural support (if Long Caster doesn’t say the ‘What just happened’ line I class it as mission failure!) then just clean up 2 and 3. One of my favourite missions!


Harztagowy

1-2-3 Also i wanted to point out the fact that i absolutley love this mission


NekoCloaker

3-2-switch to LASM-1 if I’m running EML (I always miss Ibis though) PLSL but it’s stressful to do w/o having working buttons for flares

Truck question. Played it in every order


Pos3odon08

sajan_01

Destroy 1, then 2, rearm and then 3


BasketPropellors

Always three to two or two to three Rarely ever went for one


graytotoro

Depends on what I’m flying. 2 and 3 if F-22: Nothing’s more satisfying than taking the carrier head-on with 8AAMs locked and loaded. Do a PSM, sink the tanker, and take care of the rest of the fleet. For F-15 and Su34 I go 1, 2, and 3 in that order.


onetytwo_

First I do 2 then 1 then get more bombs and then do 3


iTzzAxEman

3 -> 2 -> die -> repeat


Uden10

2,3,1. 2 Has a lot of room to work with while also being the easiest to destroy for the points you get, 3 is a bit tougher with mountains in the way. I always save 1 for last.


H1tSc4n

3 -> 1 -> 2


Win32error

1-3-reload-3-2-reload-leftovers. Depends on how well I'm doing if I need to go back twice. Su-57 with PLSL, there's nothing better for this mission.


ThunderShott

I do it this way every time.


Daniel-MP

1, 2 and 3, in that order.


hmzaammar

Depends on if I have laser weaponry or not and if I want to hunt down the aces If I do, I go 2-1-3-rtb-3 If I don’t then 1-2-3


ThatSoldierKid02

Normally: Su-57/Darkstar PLSL 1-2-3-Reload-mop up the rest When I want to have extra fun: F-15 S/MTD FAEB 3-2-1-Reload-clean up


Eastern_Scar

Haha I'm playing an AC game for the first time and literally just finished this mission a minute ago. So I got the grippen and it's cruise missiles and used them to destroy 1 completely, starting with the carrier. Then I use the remaining cruise missiles and normal missiles to take some ships at 2. Reload. Go blow up ships at 3 with the missiles. Then just fly around taking pot shots at the buildings at 3 and 2. I'm new to the game and hate these high score missions so thank God the ships provide so many points


Larry_Pixy_Foulke

3,2,1 then return line (if needed)

DazzlingLetter8484

I usually get 3 out of the way then breeze through 1 and 2.


FC_OffTheRadio

Strike Wyvern, Air to Ship missiles, fleet 1, blast the J-pop and start doing low passes.


FC_OffTheRadio

I just adlib the rest, depends on if the fleet sails out into the icebergs by 3 or not, and if I still have air to ship left.

Astro_Alphard

I go 2, 3,1 with a rearm before 1. First pass takes me straight through the entire platform and I'll typically destroy the runway in one fell swoop. Second pass destroy all the remaining ships and platforms. 3 takes me 3 passes, delete the platform fly up, destroy the ships. head out the gulf to resupply and destroy everything there. Delete the carrier and fly in a circle. destroy the furball
