There's a huge number of enemies in this one and you need to destroy every one. Fortunately none of the wings come in completely overwhelming numbers but you won't have enough missiles to last all the way. At least you're flying a Rapier for this one.
Outcome
Success go to Charon 1. Failure you lose.

Mission : Any Dralthi / Hornet missions in SM2
Comments : Who said Origin didnīt make the "Maniac Missions"? What about flying Pancakes and Hornets against whole Kilrathi fleets? If you donīt want just to run, try luring some Kilrathi away so youīll face less fighters at a time.

Mission : Corsair 6
Comments : Strange. I flew this one several times, always only 1 Salthi at Nav 1 for me...
This mission is easier than it seems at first, so don't be frightened cause of the huge number of enemy ships ;)

Mission : Corsair 6
Comments : The Kilrathi Saga version of this mission has less fighters. Only 1 Salthi, and 2 Krant. And, if you don't kill the Drakhai and let them escape, the 2nd wave doesn't come.

Mission : Corsair 3
Comments : Note that fighters which retreat from the initial tangle at the Claw (there may be several if you go after the Drakhai first) will show up when you come in to land. (This always happens when you revisit a nav point, but it doesn't usually come up)

Mission :
Comments : actually, in my run, if I let even one ship escape me, i go to charon, so to go on the winning path of the game, I had to visit all the nave points again, to finish the job on the guys that escaped me, including the 2nd wave of khriss at nav one (coming after salthi). The biggest problem for me was running out of fuel, even more than missiles, becouse without it, you're sitting duck.

Mission : Corsair 4
Comments : There are actually 5 Dralthi (2 being Drakhai) at Nav 2, not 4.
One of the Dorkirs at Nav 2 jumps out fairly quickly, so it's best to not get too caught up with fighting the escorts. You lose if either of them escape. Drakhai in Dralthi aren't exactly deadly but they can take some time to take out. Best to just zoom past them and strafe the Dorkir, then mop up the escorts afterwards.

Comments : I've finished "Corsair 4" twice with apparent success and destroying both transports. However I get failure cutscene after that. Bug or not? I ejected in Corsair 3 mission.

Mission : Corsair 6
Comments : Didn't want to leave any cats alive. Buuuuuuuuut, at the Tiger's Claw, the Drakhai ran away, so I went back to Nav 3, then back to the Claw, but the Claw wasn't there! Had to eject to finish the mission (still passed it, I guess, since everything was dead. Weird, tho...)
