The Motherland

The Motherland is a Commander's Challenge mission and features a second-last appearance of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. This also contains the second-last appearance of Vera Belova, one of three Soviet Commanders plus Oleg Vodnik and Nikolai Moskvin are needed to be defeated by FutureTech. The Futuretech Commander needs to set-up anti-air defenses to take Belova's slowest aircraft of all time, down to the ground. Kelly Weaver thinks that victory gets closer for FutureTech's businesses with at least forty-five technologies, but another five to go. This is the forty-sixth mission between the aftermath of Red Crush and before the misson, Come and Get It.

==Tips==
*While this challenge is extremely difficult, it is not impossible to beat. The Empire of the Rising Sun is your best bet here.
*Build 3 Dojo Cores and deploy them near all 3 starting Veteran Academies for quick heroic level units.
*Ensure to protect your collectors from Terror Drones using walls as Moskvin tends to scout your base with Terror Drones.
*Build at least 3 to 5 Tengus to ward off early harassers such as infantry and Terror Drones. Jet Tengus against Twinblades.
*Build 3 to 4 Striker VXs and send them to Vera's base as Chopper VX.
*Always target their production facilities and ConYards first, do this with Oleg's and Moskvin's.
*Do not stop building extra Striker VX if needed.
*This strategy also guarantees you'd be able to finish this challenge under par time.
