[[Image:BSP_eastern_solomons_pt_3.png|right|thumb|No reason to wait for your bombs to reload. Sink the transports by causing a fuel explosion with your machine guns.]]Finally, you're thrust into the cockpit of a Dauntless squad which you had escorted in the previous part of the mission. There's a small convoy of three Japanese transport ships, escorted by a single Japanese Destroyer -- The IJN Tokatsukaze. Eliminate this convoy by dive bombing the Tokatsukaze then strafing the fuel reserves on the transport ships until each ship is sunk. | [[Image:BSP_eastern_solomons_pt_3.png|right|thumb|No reason to wait for your bombs to reload.

Mission over? Not quite. Your final objective in the opening mission to the American campaign is to sink the IJN Ryujo. This Japanese carrier is escorted by a Tone-Class heavy cruiser, and a Destroyer. Sink all three, and you complete this mission with a gold medal. | Mission over? Not quite.
