Diversionary Tactics is the second mission from Air-and-Sea Patrol. It is a Race mission and uses the stage, Smuggler's Bay.

Objective

 * Come 1st, 2nd or 3rd in a 3-lap race between You, Martin and Summer against Skip, Yuki and Vincent.

Introduction

 * Barney: [player name]! You’re just in time.
 * You: I got your call, Barney. What’s up?
 * Barney: We just got a hit on one of our perimeter defences. We’ve got bogeys incoming--fast!
 * You: Morcubus?
 * Barney: It has to be. Thing is, we’re still scrambling to get the carrier ready for combat. We need you to buy us some time!
 * You: What can I do?
 * Barney: I can’t ask you to fight them alone, but you COULD distract ‘em. Run ‘em around a bit until we can get the carrier 100% online.
 * You: You got it. I should be able to keep them busy for a minute or two.

In-Mission Introduction

 * Skip: Captured SkyForce pilots are worth a lot ... Get him, Fortune Hunters!

In-Mission Conclusion

 * Skip: He isn't worth the trouble. Let's go find more profitable targets.

Conclusion

 * Lyndsay: Defenses are up and ready to rock, sir!
 * Mira: Of course, there's nothing to rock now. The bad guys took off.
 * Lyndsay: What?!
 * Barney: That's weird. Morcubus' goons never back down from a fight.
 * You: It wasn't Morcubus. It was a group of mercenaries calling themselves the "Fortune Hunters."
 * Barney: Great. My carrier's falling apart, we don't have near enough pilots, and now some jokers with simoleons in their eyes are giving me problems!
 * Mira: C'mon, Dad. Calm down. Why don't you go grab your fishing rod and I'll meet you up on the deck. It's been awhile since you took me fishing.
 * Thanks, kid. I think that's a great idea.
 * Mira: Well, it'll give you a chance to do your two favourite things: catch fish and complain.
 * (Barney leaves)
 * Lyndsay: I don't know what he'd do without you, Mira!
 * Mira: Yeah, yeah ...
 * Lyndsay: We'll be fine, [player name[. Thanks again for you help.
