Briefing[]
Raven, we've just confirmed reports that Mirage has successfully integrated a newly developed weapons technology with their high-speed cargo transport. The transport must be destroyed.
Mirage operates the transport in a complex of privately excavated tunnels just beneath the planet's surface.
This setup makes it extremely difficult for us to stay abreast of new developments and keep them in check.
All previous attempts to destroy the transport failed miserably. Now that modifications have been made, the task should prove even more difficult.
Our ability to remain competitive hinges on your performance during this mission. Do not disappoint us.
Enemies[]
- Scalopus A-3 Transport

Walkthrough[]
This mission may seem hard but is actually very easy if you use the right strategy.
The target vehicle is susceptible to damage from any side. The worst way to do this is to attack from the back, as once destroyed the back car will reveal a powerful energy cannon. Destroying the energy cannon does not damage the transport, so it's not worth fighting it. Since the transport moves very fast, it's best to equip hover legs as they are the fastest leg types available to ACs. A combination of light hover legs and powerful generator will allow you to boost fast enough to keep up with the transport with little trouble, without even relying on the Overboost.
Another thing is, the transport itself is rather durable, so you will need a powerful weapon to bring it down. The best weapon to use against it is the almighty MOONLIGHT blade, since it can be used indefinitely and doesn't have much usage drain. If you happen to have the optional part that boosts blade attack power, even better. Lastly, it'd be best to have an Overboost core, as the transport is fast, Overboost will allow you to maintain the pace with it if regular boosting is not enough.
Once the mission starts, Overboost to near the front cars and slash it repeatedly with the MOONLIGHT. If you move directly in front of the transport it will push you forward as it moves, meaning you can blade it to death without having to follow it. Otherwise, try to stay as in front as possible while attacking the lateral sides of the vehicle - preferably right in the middle between two side turrets to minimize incoming damage. As a precaution for running out of energy, it'd be good if you also have energy refill extensions. If you find yourself running low on energy, use it to refill your reserves. About 6-7 MOONLIGHT slashes should be able to destroy the transport within 30 seconds if done correctly, 5 if using OP-I. Alternatively, the KAW-SAMURAI2 blade weapon arms will achieve the same result, destroying the transport in five double cuts if assisted by OP-E-LAP.
