Good to know

It is the site that protects La Joya Port.
Fly into its range and a radio voice asks for your credentials; stay too long and the guns shoot you down.
Air Drop is blocked inside its coverage, but Fast Travel still works.
A single hit from an explosive weapon, or two to three grenades, usually wrecks the gun.
The Depleted Uranium here pays for Supremo backpacks and Resolver weapons at the workbench.
El Este has 8 anti-aircraft sites in total, all named after Greek letters.

What's here

The site is built around a large framed anti-aircraft gun, a scaled-up version of a twin-barrel ZU-23 cannon, with two shoulder-fired missile launchers mounted beside it. FND soldiers guard the position, and the Depleted Uranium is kept somewhere on site for you to grab. It covers La Joya Port, so clear it before you bring a plane or helicopter near the docks.

How to take it

Do not fly in. The site warns you over the radio, then opens fire, so arrive by road, boat or on foot. Scout from higher ground first and tag the guards with your phone. Like other FND positions, watch for alarms and cameras and shoot them before you go loud. When you reach the gun, one rocket or a Supremo blast is normally enough, or toss two or three grenades onto it.

Rewards

You get the Depleted Uranium stored at the site, which is the main way to fund Supremos and Resolver weapons outside the Du or Die story mission. The airspace over this part of El Este also opens up, so you can fly here and use Air Drop.

Worth knowing

After the story, Insurgencies let the FND Remnants retake anti-aircraft sites. You can destroy this one again when that happens, but you can never hand it back to the FND yourself.
