General Information

As per the mission briefing text, a sub crash recovery involves sending a team of aquanauts to the crash site and initiate a recovery of the sub and its equipment by killing or stunning all of its remaining crew.

The mission is essentially identical to an Alien Submarine Assault with the exception that some of the Ion Beam Accelerators in the submarine are randomly pre-exploded when the map is generated. This damages a lot of the internals of the submarine and more often than not create severe external hull damage. This makes alternate access points into the sub, and also more places that its crew can attack from.

The extent of the damage will vary from mission to mission and does not depend on the amount of damage done to the sub in the Geoscape segment.

Alien crew that start the mission near the Ion Beam Accelerators may be killed. More durable aliens may survive but will be badly injured. With a lesser crew to fight, crash recovery missions tend to be short but no less dangerous.
