This Mission is by far the easist if your in a HF.
in the Ambush give it about half a dogfight (half your normal abilty)
Then instead of the F2 use Shift W and manuly fly though the rest of the roids (i do this with my 20/40 vision so its easy) Main Target of this is that BATTLEBOAT ingore all fighters (they seem to want to gangbang me when i attack the battleboat. once it is gone focus on living and shhoting the shields with the Battleboat gone (i still have bout 6 fighters on my as$ preventing warp) i just fly circles around the main shiled till all 4 are gone i easily keep out of their weapons and only get hit a few times after my batteries are gone (i use 3/4 on the ambush and 1/8 on the battleship do the math and find out i'm at 1/8 max left) once the shield is gone i aim up on the arch and do my mazin landing of waiting for the dock scene and hitting esc(lessens damage)

When the Going's get Tough, The Tough get a bigger Battleboat.
