Upon reaching Nav 1, you'll find 4 Krants. You have but a minute or two before the Drayman you need to escort arrives so that's all the time you have to take out the Krants without having to worry about the transport. You'll see a flash when it arrives. On the way home, you are ambushed by three Salthi, one of which is being piloted by Bhurak Starkiller. Target Bhurak first and try to take him out, although he'll probably run away. If he does, that leaves you with just the remaining two Salthi to deal with.
Outcome
Success go to Gimle 1. Failure go to Brimstone 1.

Comments : Can you only receive the silver star if you shoot down starkiller? If not, do you need to kill 7 kilrahs?

Comments : The Drayman won't show up until you actually make it to Nav 1 (within 1000 clicks, I think). If you use autopilot as you leave the Claw, it'll dump you far enough away from Nav 1 that you can taunt the Krants into coming after you.

Comments : If Bhurak Starkiller gets away and you make it back to the Claw w/ the Drayman, wait for the Drayman to get away from you, then go back to Nav 1 and you get another shot at Bhurak.

Comments : Beni: You think you should get rewarded for NOT shooting down Bhurak?? This is not how it works my friend.
And you who cannot land - how hard is it? Just fly towards the front of the TC, AFTER you get landing clearance.

Comments : Ripperian,
I had the same problem at first. I was trying to land approaching from the side. You must approach the Tiger's Claw from the front at a modest speed. About 100 or so is fine. I use side and rear cameras (F2, F3, F4) to get in position.

Comments : my Auto-Pilot light was on, so I pressed it, w/o checking NAV before... i thought it would bring me back to the Drayman, which was wrong, I went to the Claw, alone. NAV tells me Drayman is still on its way, so I set it as my destination and engage...

Mission : McAuliffe 3
Comments : From now on strange things happened:
1. My wingman was suddenly with me while he was not when I went to the Claw.
2. I arrived at the Drayman, it was still alive and also was Bhurak (I had shot him down to RED, now he was in perfect condition!)

Comments : 3. While I attacked Bhurak, he suddenly turned INVISIBLE! He was visible on the radar but not by eye. I managed to hit him a few times anyway, but he destroyed the Drayman and then pushed his afterburnes as usual and disappeared.

Comments : 4. Music was quite messed up for the rest of the mission, for example while landing it played the music which is normally used, when you get a medal.
