Forged Alliance Mission 3: Operation "Red Flag".
I jacked a Seraphim engineer from the firs phase to build some of their toys. Mainly shields, Seraphim shields are the best (I'm playing as Cybran Nation and their shields are the worst in the game).
But what also came to use were their T3 Carriers and T3 Battleships. Hauthuum Battleship's main cannons pack more punch than Galaxy Class's dinky proton cannons (I think so at least... though they have the same range), and Iavish Carrier has tactical missiles and decent AA. There are two of each pictured.
You can also see two Galaxy Class Battleships and a Siren Class Cruiser. Don't get me wrong, Galaxy's main cannons might not be as devastating as UEF Summit's, but she's still a battleship, and she's also armed with torpedoes (uniquely among T3 battleships), and can mess up most ships she comes across. And Siren Class might be fragile (Cruisers in this game are made of tissue paper), but she carries a decent AA system, TMD and a decent cannon (Usually Cruisers have puny cannons and Seraphim cruiser has no direct fire weapons at all), and has a refuel&repair pad.

  • BTW, this right here? My most favorite mission in the entire Forged Alliance campaign, ESPECIALLY when played as Cybran. This is a naval based mission and my most favorite units in the game are Cybran ships (specifically Galaxy, Siren and especially Salem Classes). Secondly, the mission objective is pretty much "rescue the Aeon leader" (who actually holds the title of "princess" as a bonus points). Thirdly, until the whole Forged Alliance business the Aeon unofficial engame goal was pretty much the genocide of the Cybran Nation, and even Rhiza (your Aeon back-up in this mission) is surprised that you'd go out of your way to save their leader's pretty backside (granted, the Aeon Princess was firmly against this whole "kill all Cybrans" thing and Rhiza was about the only Aeon commander to give a flak about what she wanted).
