Escape Flak Tower | Operation Der Flakturm MoH: Airborne Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
You will have to choose between two different approach methods here. If you're playing a normal difficulty level, you might have some chance running towards the exit. You wouldn't have to engage any soldiers, but you would probably lose at least two health slots. If you're playing on Expert, you must eliminate everyone before proceeding to the safe zone. You will encounter at least 5-6 ARMORED soldiers along the way, so it's not going to be easy to escape the tower. Thankfully, you won't have to worry about any time limits.
Reaching your target:
You'll start in the exact same spot where the last cut-scene took place. Your first task here will be to start running forward. Ignore some of the allied soldiers, because you won't have to be concerned with their safety. There's an armored soldier to your right, but you won't have to fight him. You will also encounter two standard soldiers and you will probably have to kill them. Once they're gone, turn left and head on to a new corridor (screen).
As you've probably noticed, there's a corridor here which leads straight to the basement. You will have to go there now, because this is the only passageway to your current destination. You should be able to find grenades here. Pick them up, because they may come in handy very soon. Head on to the next room. You should be standing close to the left wall.
Start off by eliminating one of the standard enemy soldiers. This is where it gets more difficult. There are A LOT of armored soldiers here. You can try several different routes here. Either way, you should use all of your grenades right away. Next, try standing behind a good cover (screen). Make sure that you're using longer bursts to kill them. You might also consider going back to the previous area, so you won't get attacked from many different angles.
If you're careful, you should be able to kill all hostile units without receiving any major injuries. Now you should take a look at a nearby munition stockpile. You'll find a lot of clips here, as well as several medkits. You can't stay here for too long, because you would be exposed to enemy fire.
One of the armored soldiers may be hiding to your right (screen). You won't have to kill him, but I'd still recommend neutralizing him, so he won't surprise you in the near future. You'll also find two medkits here.
If you don't want to kill all soldiers, you should consider going left. You would encounter a second armored unit here. He will be standing in the corner of this room (screen). Try killing him from a larger distances. You should also use all of your remaining grenades, because you won't encounter any other enemy units.
Like I've said before, you'll be safe from now on, so you will only have to focus on finding a correct route to the surface. There's a small corridor to your right. Go there now. You will come across a ladder. Use it and get down to the sewers. Turn left and use a second (smaller) ladder. This is going to be a slightly longer tunnel. It's not guarded by anyone. Keep moving forward. Once you've reached a third ladder, use it to reach the exit.
