	The Hades will spit out seemingly endless waves of Lokis, but there is a sweet spot where they won't attack you. Position yourself in the elbow of one of the engine supports of the Hades and let her have it. You may want to rubber-band your trigger, time-compress the game and come back later after a cup of tea/pack of cigarettes, because it takes forever to kill the Hades with your primaries (this tactic will make you the statistically most accurate pilot that has ever lived). She ''will'' go down, though. You can ''not'' fail this mission.		The Hades will spit out seemingly endless waves of Lokis, but there is a sweet spot where they won't attack you.

			If you choose to dogfight without exploiting the above "bug," stay close to the bombers, who they'll stick around the engines for most of the fight. Keep engaging the nearest hostile fighters. That's enough to keep them alive. Your wingmen are competent without you giving them orders. In this mission, it's critical to keep as many wingmen alive as possible. Don't attack the escape pods yet, despite your orders. They won't go anywhere.

			If the Hades goes down, engage your afterburners as brutally as you can—the Hades's explosion is huge.
