Nice and quick. gotta keep practicing, i have no idea, how to tell my fleet to go away so i can sponge all the kills.

A good challenge and certainly doable on Medium, but I wonder if Hard is TOO hard? Both the frigate and your wingmen are dead within the first two minutes of the fight on the highest difficulty, so the mission's a bust anyhow.
On Medium, the challenge is about right. Victory is definitely within your grasp, but if you don't work fast you'll lose the Ad Astra. The frigate is in very little danger, a huge contrast to the situation on Hard.

This mission is suicide from the battle point of view. 5 imperial ships against 2 rebel ships? Of course empire should win no matter what. Not only that but I can think how avoid my ships to be destroy when they are kill in the minute 2 by so many ships and fighters at once. I am only 1 pilot with 1 live. Come on! And my fighters AI are not enough.
I like challenge (not easy) missions but this battle is a no no. If I were the commander I obviously retreat from the beginning and back with more fighters or ships. Why I fight I lose battle?
The only way to win is by playing medium or easy difficulty, but still is not a realistic outcome to rebels win.
Anyway, is an entertaining mission overall if you play medium difficulty.
