I keep destroying the shuttle that some guys are suppose to abduct an officer off of. I've tried 6 different times. Tried not shooting it and it escapes. Tried shooting a little and it escapes. I've tried to dissable it and I can't. The shields never reach 0%. it's always 1%. or 2%. By the time I get to the other side of the shuttle to finish the shield off the front would have recharged. Am I doing this all wrong. I keep taking little shots and end up destroying it and it says <we had some of our own men on that shuttle Pilot, return to base.> Can someone please help me, I'm stuck at 2,2,1,2. it won't let me train until I finish this mission.

Are you using component targeting to disable the ship? I've encountered quite a few people who've been blasting away at the engine "visuals" thinking a rear hit will be hitting the engines. The default setup is for the [ and ] keys to cycle through the components. Target the engine component (you'll also notice reactor and Weapons might be component targets) and you should find that the engines will start going down once the shields have dropped.

Thank you very much. Such a simple thing overlooked saves the day. I finished mission first time, as long as I target the engine instead of the whole ship. Imagine that. Thanks again. I hope this helps out other people as well.
