- To unlock this mission, first complete important/yellow-dotted Side Ops (child rescue missions).
- Bring your most powerful rocket launcher (thus not with weaker homing missiles) for this mission, plus D-Dog for marking targets. Choose the landing zone in the middle of the area and move to the outpost to the west.
- Neutralize a few targets and (unless you have brought D-Horse), kill one of the soldiers to use his body as a roadblock at the main road. Alternatively you can also use electronic mines, but that is a bit unwieldy.
- As the vehicles stop, approach them from the side and extract them.
- Leave the gunship alone until it attempts to land at the outpost, then blow it up with your most powerful rocket launcher. Collect the blueprint it leaves behind at the crash site.
- On a second playthrough, follow the last/fourth armored vehicle to Nova Braga Airport to the southwest. You can find the commander and rough diamonds in the main building on the west side of the airport, so it makes sense to bypass security and enter the airport from the west gate.
- [Subsistence]-Rank Tips: Destroy the vehicles ASAP, gunship included, and exfiltrate as quickly as you can afterwards.
