Your guide to Pacific Drive Part 16, Operation Sheepdog. Learn how to destroy AA positions, locate a downed pilot, and navigate the dangers of Bougainville.

Alright, so Part 16 is called Operation Sheepdog, and it's taking us to Bougainville in November 1943. The briefing is pretty straightforward: the Black Sheep fighter squadron is getting hammered by Japanese anti-aircraft guns, and they need us to take them out from the ground. We'll be dropped into the marshy lowlands on the south side and need to push north. Expect a lot of Japanese soldiers, especially camouflaged snipers hiding in the thick jungle. Once we get to drier land, our main job is to find and destroy all five anti-aircraft positions. They're going to be well-defended, and we might even run into some Japanese tanks. Keep an eye out for a downed American pilot too – if we can find him after dealing with the AA guns, we need to get him back to safety.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start in the marshy lowlands on the south side of the island. This area is crawling with Japanese soldiers, so tread carefully. Keep your eyes peeled for snipers hidden in the dense undergrowth.
  2. 2
    Work your way north towards drier land. As you advance, you'll encounter more Japanese troops.
  3. 3
    Once you reach the drier areas, your primary objective is to locate and destroy all five anti-aircraft positions. These will be heavily defended, so be prepared for a fight.
  4. 4
    Be aware that there might be Japanese armor, like tanks, defending these positions. If you find a tank, consider commandeering it to help with your assault, but it's not guaranteed to make things easier.
  5. 5
    While you're clearing out the AA guns, keep an eye out for a downed American pilot. He might be hiding somewhere on the island.
  6. 6
    After you've destroyed all five AA positions, focus on locating the pilot.
  7. 7
    Once you find the pilot, escort him back to safety. This usually means reaching a designated extraction point.
Tips
  • Stealth is key, especially in the marshy lowlands. Use the dense vegetation for cover to avoid detection.
  • When engaging snipers, try to pinpoint their location first and take them out from a distance if possible.
  • For the AA positions, assess the defenses before launching your attack. Use any available cover to your advantage.
  • If you encounter tanks, prioritize taking them out or using them yourself. They can be a major threat or a powerful asset.
  • Don't forget about the secondary objective of rescuing the pilot. Keep an eye out for any signs of his location throughout the mission.
