Introduction
Edit
Rico is briefed on a beach at the Casa Montoya cartel villa. Tom Sheldon tells him that José Caramicas and the rebels will move against the city of Nuevo Estocolmo. José wants to make a radio broadcast before then.
Walkthrough
Edit
You are provided with a Fukuda Buckskin Trapper, but feel free to try to complete the mission with a helicopter. The best helicopter is at the "Rioja 04 Eales Nest" safehouse.
Get to the broadcast center.
If you're using a helicopter, go to the eastern side of the location first. There's 2 Automatic surface to air missile launchers. There's no military, or police presence, so they won't shoot at you yet. Destroy them.
Now go talk to José. He'll tell you to protect him while he makes his speech.
There will be a few soldiers guarding the gate. There's a checkpoint right after José enters the station. Tom calls and informs you that the speech will last for exactly 2 minutes. How he knows this and how he knew to call at this exact moment is unknown.
There will be several groups of attackers, coming from north, south and west. There will also be an occasional police Huerta PA51 Aztek helicopter.
When the speech ends you have to get to the broadcast antenna on foot. Set some C4 at the red marker and get to a safe distance. The rest will happen in a cutscene.
There broadcast antenna will explode and Rico will jump onto an Agency Delta 5H4 Boxhead helicopter, piloted by Kane.
After the mission, Rico will spawn at the location where you can start the Liberation of Nuevo Estocolmo.
