Mission walkthrough

  1. Unlock the follow-up

    Finish Officer Down! or Karma Assassins! and retain yellow-phone access with the Russians. Start with armour and enough health for a heavy-weapon encounter.

  2. Collect the supplied weapons

    Pick up the rocket launcher and ElectroGun. Follow the tank markers toward the invading force instead of waiting for all three to converge on your position.

  3. Remove immediate escorts

    The tanks have Zaibatsu escorts. Clear enemies who block your firing position, keeping room to dodge the tanks’ attacks and avoiding point-blank rocket shots.

  4. Finish all three tanks

    Use the supplied heavy weapons against each marked vehicle. Reposition as another tank approaches, and watch the mission counter so an intact target is not left behind.

Key point

This is a three-tank destruction job. Do not confuse it with Tanks-Giving!, the Residential mission where a tank must be stolen and delivered.
