I failed this mission miserably. It's actually a two player coop mission, so relying on AI rather than another human is a little challenging. Ideally, you must neutralize the ships lobbying torpedoes ASAP, but it's just not practical with only 2 ships. Targeting the torpedoes with your own missiles never works, so you're left to basically try to be an interceptor in a bomber. It's certainly not an impossible mission to complete, but it's much more challenging than most of the others (with the exception of the mine field, of course).
