Bombing Run Mission"R&D was able to extract and translate a flight plan from the wreckage of the ET bomber shot down and has passed it over to us. We’ve mapped the route and it intersects the industrial zones of several cities as well as a classified base. The timing is too tight and the sites too large for ground landings but adequate for a string of rapid airstrikes culminating with a heavy raid on the base. Commander, it looks like the ETs are going to step up their air campaign.
We can expect ET bombers to target strategic, economic and civilian targets of significance but with a whole planet to pick from it’s going to be difficult to predict where they’re going to strike. If this flight plan is any indication, it looks like they’ll be tasked with hitting several minor targets and then prep for a major raid which will expose them to attack by our interceptors. Bombers are very likely to be escorted and will be a medium-class signal or larger. Look for medium signals with flight patterns that focus on specfic targets but don't land.
Predicted casualties from a bombing run are expected to be the hundreds so shut them down as a priority Commander. We can always send in a team to deal with ground landings, but bombing runs can only be intercepted. "
