Really easy mission, just kill the TIEs which go after the FRT first then the others, and then the FRG

Craft: A-wing

Mission goals:
Freighter RADLEY Completed Mission
Calamari CATHLEEN Arrived

Description:
Protect an Alliance Freighter as it delivers new B-Wings to the Cruiser Cathleen.

Brief:
The Alliance Freighter Radley awaits a rendezvous with the Cruiser Cathleen. A-Wing Blue 5 is protecting the Freighter but has had a shield failure. A-Wing Red will jump immediately to Habassa IV to relieve A-Wing Blue 5. The Cruiser Cathleen should arrive approximately ten minutes later.

Detail:
B-Wings continue to be deployed as rapidly as possible. The new fighters are proving themselves well suited to the roles they were designed for. Nevertheless, some weaknesses have come to light. They have proven to be especially vulnerable to TIE Interceptors. This requires that the B-Wings have adequate escort when attacking a target defended by TIE Interceptors. The Cruiser Cathleen is the next to receive a B-Wing Squadron. The Freighter Radley is carrying the new B-Wings that are to be delivered to the Cruiser. The Radley is being guarded by A-Wing Blue 5. Blue 5 has reported a shield system failure and has requested immediate withdrawal. Red Squadron will send a pair of A-Wings as soon as possible. The Cathleen should arrive about ten minutes after you.

Mission Completion Hints:
All enemy starfighters launch in one minute intervals. You must kill them quickly to keep from being overwhelmed. Remember to give your wingmen specific attack orders. A Top Ace A-Wing is very effective against TIE Fighters and TIE Bombers! Use your missiles on any TIE Bombers (or other ships that get by you). Have your wingmen attack the TIE Interceptors if they prove troublesome.
