Briefing[]
This is an emergency request. A squadron of Emeraude fighters has
been detected in the Horwick Mountains. Their most likely target is our
airbase located in the region.
The top-secret airbase is not yet capable of defending itself against
a large airborne assault, and in fact, it has only minimal defensive
capabilities.
We've requested assistance, but due to the remote location of the
airbase, it will be awhile before reinforcements.
Attack the Emeraude squadron and halt their advance. The facility's
gate must be defended until reinforcements arrive. We'll take care of
the situation once they do.
Enemies[]
- Firework (respawn)

Operator: "It looks like their reinforcements are here. Let’s head out."
Walkthrough[]
Armored Core 2 Another Age Defend the Airbase
This is actually a pretty straightforward mission, you just have to defend the gate until the timer runs out and the reinforcements arrive. All you have to do is stay where you are (as the gate you need to defend is right behind your starting position) and fire away at the airplanes that approach. Sniper rifles are recommended, as they have decent range and have enough offensive power to take out the planes, which will continually spawn until the mission is over, so having good defense on your AC is also a priority.
You also have 2 additional sniper MTs that are assisting you in the mission, but they won't last very long, so once they are taken down, it's all up to you to defend the gate (least til the timer runs out).
Trivia[]
- You get an additional 600 credits for each fighter plane destroyed.
