Briefing[]
We request that you begin an assault on the Doomsday Organization's
HQ.
We have recently heard that they are near completion on a new weapons
system code-named "Project Phantasma".
Before the project is on-line, sneak into the main office and extract
detailed data about the project from their computer system.
The target is located in the lower room of the office complex. On your
way, destroy all obstructions as you see fit.
This will be an extended mission, so prepare your AC ammunition stores
accordingly.

Dialogue[]
<Sumika>: "Your goal is to infiltrate the computer room in the lower section. Destroy all obstacles in your way."
<Sumika>: "The computer room is here in the inner section. Wait here until the download is complete."
<Sumika>: "It might take a little longer than expected. Please wait."
<Sumika>: "I think I can make it."
<Sumika>: "Please wait."
<Sumika>: "Thank you for your assistance. You’ve done well. Now we can reveal their entire plan. We will obtain supplies here. Be careful until the process is complete."
<Sumika>: "They are abandoning the base. I think they’re going to destroy all the evidence, including us!"
<Sumika>: "We have located enemy paratroopers. We must eliminate them in order to escape."
<Sumika>: "We are safe for the time being. Let’s get out of here before the reinforcements arrive. Everything will be destroyed. But, it might be better this way."
Walkthrough[]
This is quite a long mission, so keep an eye on your ammo stores. It's best to bring weapons with high ammo count (and an ammo reserve magazine if possible) as there're tons of enemies to deal with, namely the Nashorn MTs and multiple gun turrets. Keep clearing them out as you go along. Eventually you will reach a room where there're a bunch of platforms. Head for the one at the bottom (the lowest platform) and head through to the end and keep clearing the enemies as you go.
At the end of the room, a cutscene will then play where Sumika enters the computer room to download the data. In the meantime, you also have a job: keep the enemies at bay. Now there will be a bunch of Papagai MTs that will spawn. While individually they're weak, their weapons actually do hit hard if you're not careful and they tend to come in pairs. Fortunately, they die from only 2 shots from a powerful weapon like the Karasawa.
Once the Papagai MTs are taken care of, another cutscene plays with Sumika having finished downloading the data. As the cutscene ends, your ammo is resupplied (but not your AP), thereby giving you an advantage for the next half of the mission.
Now, moving onto the next part of the mission, you have to go back the way you came from. In other words, you need to make your way back outside (where you started from). Along the way, more Nashorn MTs will spawn, clear them out as you go.
Once you get outside, another cutscene plays, where a bunch of enemy bombers abruptly show up to destroy the base. You will then encounter a group of Heat Wave GPACs (from the original game), which you have to destroy to complete the mission. After they're down, the mission is over.
Trivia[]
- Halfway through the mission your ammo gets refueled.
- The bombers only appear in a cutscene destroying the base.
