OK, the answer is annoying, but simple: you CANT.  That mission consists
solely of shooting down everything flying that they throw at you
(four MiGs and occasionally a cruise missle, if I remember rightly) and
you're done.  You'll get the "mission complete" and you head back to the
carrier and it's over.  Unsatisfying, but over.

As long as I'm here, does anyone know what triggers a cruise missle on this
mission?  Is it random, or does it always happen if you don't do something
quickly enough or some such?  Also, does the "fly below 100 feet" stuff
matter at all (or, more pointedly, DO anything at all???).  It is all moot,
since as I mentioned above you just shoot 'em down and go home, but I was
just wondering if I was missing any subtleties.
