Ace Combat X2 Joint Assault - Mission 7 - Safe Recovery - Alpha (SP) Ace
This mission is part of the second set of Joint Assault missions. It involves protecting a helicopter as it flies to Mission 8 area, destroying facilities to stop a fire in Mission 8 so that the helicopter can land, and then protecting it as it comes back from Mission 8 to the side of the map is came from in Mission 7.
Sort of a slow mission. Quite easy on many fronts. S rank is dependant on a) How fast you hit the facilities and b) How much damage Paper Wasp takes. The helicopter will not regenerate health when it comes back during Phase 3. Also in the MP version Paper Wasp can take damage from a total of 3 phases which makes things a lot more hectic trying to S rank it.

Extremely easy Ace to spot and kill in SP. Not too much harder in MP. It will spawn at the far Western facility site. In SP it'll be the only enemy TGT over there but in MP it will be next to a facility you have to destroy to finish Phase 2. It's a vehicle so it is not hard to miss it.
