Mission Steps and Strategy
- Meet Auntie Poulet: Head to the Haitian compound in Little Haiti. Auntie Poulet will brief you on the mission, explaining that you need to disrupt the rival gang's operations by destroying their vehicles and a key facility.
- Acquire the RC Bomber: Auntie Poulet provides you with a remote-controlled RC Bomber. This is your primary tool for destruction. You'll need to control it with precision.
- Destroy the Rival Vehicles: Your first objective is to locate and destroy several enemy vehicles. These will be marked on your radar. You'll need to carefully pilot the RC Bomber through the streets, avoiding traffic and police, to reach each target and detonate your payload.
- Strategy: Take your time. The RC Bomber is slow and fragile. Use alleys and less populated routes to minimize the risk of being spotted or crashing. If you get a wanted level, try to lose the cops before continuing with the bomber.
- Destroy the Drug Processing Facility: After destroying the vehicles, you'll be directed to a drug processing facility. This is a larger target and will likely be more heavily guarded. You'll need to navigate the RC Bomber into the facility and detonate the bombs to destroy it.
- Strategy: The facility often has multiple entry points. Look for the most direct and least obstructed path. Be aware of any guards or vehicles that might try to shoot down your RC Bomber. The explosion from destroying the facility is quite sificant.
- Escape the Area: Once the facility is destroyed, the mission is complete. You'll likely have a wanted level, so be prepared to evade the police.

- Police Interference: The police will often become aware of your activities, especially during the destruction of the facility. Having a plan to lose them after the mission is crucial.
- Weaponry: While you don't directly use weapons in this mission, the RC Bomber itself is your weapon. Ensure you understand its detonation radius.
