VTOL VR - The Island - Mission 5 - Silent Island

"Return to the island to investigate why communications have gone silent."
The first leg of this mission has you escorting a fighter squadron to a nearby fuel tanker. If your RWR is on, you will spot multiple signals coming from the northern coast of the island; an enemy fleet is present there. Once the fighters have refueled, fly to the next waypoint to receive your next objective. Make sure to stay low to avoid getting locked by the enemy fleet. You will then receive an objective to destroy a convoy en route to a group of engineers still on the island. Hit their air defenses first to debilitate the convoy; AGM-65 missiles are recommended for effectiveness and safety. Once the entire convoy is gone, land at the next waypoint and allow the engineers to load onto your ship. After they've loaded up, take off and return to the carrier.
Objectives
Find out the situation on Akutan
Destroy the convoy threatening the engineers still on the island.
Pick up the engineers and return to the carrier.
Threats
A whole enemy fleet in the bay area
A hostile convoy
Tanks
Air defenses
