Master "Sterling Phoenix" (3) in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands with our expert walkthrough. Secure objectives, eliminate enemies, and reach extraction.

Alright, let's get this "Sterling Phoenix" (3) mission done in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands. This one's a big open map, so we'll want to lean into snipers for the long-range stuff, but keep some close-combat specialists ready too. For your sniper team (Alpha), I'd load up Jack Stone, Astra Galinsky, and Scott Ibrahim with their best sniper kits. Since the map is so huge, we don't need support guys; bring along riflemen and demo experts for when things get up close and personal. Lindy Cohen, Nigel Tunney, and Buzz Gordon are good picks for that.

Before we jump in, let's get our soldiers' points sorted. They each start with four. Try to balance out Weapons, Endurance, and Stealth as best you can. I usually skip Leadership, but it's your call. Once everyone's set, let's start the mission.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Secure Comm Center: As soon as you start, switch to someone in Bravo and save your game. Open up your command map. You'll see the Motor Pool to the west with enemy tanks, and the Comm Center directly south – that's our first target. The OP and Extraction Zone are further south. We're leaving Alpha behind for now. Head to the building south of your starting position and make your way to its northwestern corner. Go up the stairs on the west side of the building, then crouch. Open the door on the left; there's an enemy inside. Take him out, then head back downstairs, go straight through the room you just came from, and deal with the two enemies waiting for you. Now, go down and look out the window facing southwest. You'll spot an enemy by the northwest corner of a building. Eliminate him, then exit the building. Look back towards where you just got that last kill; there's another enemy, likely prone. Take him down. Now, turn east and you'll see two enemies coming down the hill to investigate. Take them out. Head back over to where you killed those first two enemies before the ones on the hill. Look south; there's another enemy by a building. Get rid of him and then head southwest. Go around the smaller building to find another enemy hiding. After you take him out, look west – two more enemies are coming down the hill. Eliminate them. Finally, look west of the largest building; there's a small shack with an enemy behind it. Take him out. Now, switch over to Alpha and save the game.
  2. 2
    Secure Motor Pool: With Alpha selected, open your command map. Look along the north wall; you'll see it jut out in the middle. Set a waypoint for Bravo right at that jutting point and catch up with them. Now, leave Bravo for a moment so you can do some sniping. Crouch down and move southwest until you start spotting enemies and the two tanks. Find a good vantage point and start taking out the enemies. There should be about eight of them: four in the guard tower and four around the tents. Once they're down, head back to Bravo. Get Nigel Tunney out and move to where Alpha was just positioned. Take out the two tanks with two rockets. Remember, the tanks have machine guns, so don't get caught in their line of fire. Once the tanks are destroyed, this objective will complete. Save your game.
  3. 3
    Secure OP: Switch back to Alpha and open your command map. You'll see a large rock in the center of the map with two paths leading to the lower beach. Focus on the western path. Set a waypoint for Bravo to follow, just above where the path narrows, and then follow them. There will be three enemies near this point – two on small posts, making them easy targets, and one walking around. Keep this in mind as you move in and eliminate all three. You've now reached your destination for this part. Start moving down the path while crouching with Alpha. To the south, you'll see three enemies walking around behind some trees. You'll need to move slightly west and then go prone to get a clear shot at them. Once they're dealt with, have Bravo come down to the beach by setting a waypoint as far south as you can. When they reach their spot, join them and save. Now, set a waypoint for Bravo near the extraction zone and follow them along the shoreline. About halfway there, you'll see a jeep driving away from you on the beach. Shoot the passenger in the back, then head towards the jeep. Leave Bravo to continue to their objective for now. You'll see the driver and three more enemies a bit northeast of the jeep. Take all four of them out. Head to where they were, still leaving Bravo to advance. Bravo will start engaging enemies at the tent area where the OP is located very quickly. Get over there as fast as you can to help out. You can keep pressing the back button to check the enemy kill count. Once you've eliminated 40 enemies, there will be no more spawning, and you'll complete the mission.
Tips
  • Use snipers whenever possible due to the open terrain.
  • Balance your soldiers' stats, focusing on Weapons, Endurance, and Stealth.
  • Save your game frequently, especially after completing objectives.
  • Be aware of the tanks' machine gun fire when attacking the Motor Pool.
  • Utilize prone and cover effectively when engaging enemies behind trees or in open areas.
