This is a nice little creative "sim" mission. I'm always partial to the challenge of flying without shields, and this proved to be no exception -- especially when I discovered the transport was gunning for me after all, and took heavy hull damage on my first run.

The real shame is that SHU Kazuya never makes it to hyperspace, at least in the two runs I did. I've no idea why, as it's set to "depart by hyperspace", but it simply didn't. In the end of my second run, B-W Academy 3 started attempting to re-capture Kazuya until I sent the B-W home - maybe the crew of the shuttle was resisting orders? :)

The story is not really explained, but that's not the point of the mission. Still, I was left wondering what "Sa'Fel shuttles" are. The mission is relatively simple, and if you stay alive it will complete itself (minus the above problem).

Total time: 6 minutes; the time limit is not a factor in this OpLan mission.

Strategy:
- There are 8 kills; send home the B-Wings after they disable the SHU to have sole access to the kills. The last GUN runs after Kazuya and should be chased down.
- It is possible to get 100% accuracy on this mission and earn a perfect score.
