Mission Overview:
In Operation Constantine, you are to engage and destroy all enemy Air and Ground targets in support of the liberation of the City of Directus, the Capital of Ustio. You responsibility is to provide aircover and ground support for the ground forces in this operation.

Mission Walkthough:
Staring from the South, you will approach Directus. The first enemy you encounter is a Typhoon. hit him head on with two Standard missiles, then continue on toward the ground targets in and around Directus. Just to the west of the city, you will see an enemy aircraft engaging friendly ground forces, this is an A-10A, you will see that he's identified with a green marker with a circle around it on your radar. Take him out ASAP.

When he's destroyed, continue with engaging the ground forces. You will notice that the primary (Red) and secondary (Green) targets are mixed within the buildings throughout the city. It's easier to use the standard missiles for these targets. Most of the neutral (Yellow) targets are out in the open and are grouped close together, and on occasion, a secondary target will be mixed in with them. If you are going for the Mercenary path, use the FAEBs.

While you are engagnig the ground targets, you will be harassed my enemy fighters, which will be MiG-29As and the Ace Planes.. Destroy them before you destroy the final primary (Red) Target. Ensure all secondary and neutral targets (If working on Mercenary Path) are destroyed before you destroy the last Primary (red) target.

After you destroy the last destroy the last Primary (Red) Target, it seems like the mission is complete, but then comes a Mission Update.

After the Mission Update, two Su-37s of the Gelb Squadron appear. If you have XLAAs, engage both planes, you can usually destroy one of them. If using standatrd missiles, go for the plane to your right. Be careful, they will fire XLAAs at you, so you must dodge them to get into range. when you are in range, fire off two missiles and you canquickly destroy the first plane. Here's where it gets tricky. When engaging the second Su-37, they seem to be firing missiles backwards. If you are not paying attention, you will get flamed real fast.. If you have several XLAA's left, fire off a volley of four missiles ,then fire off two standard missiles. Continue to engage and dodge the backward firing missiles until you have destroy the second Su-37. Then, Mission Complete.
