Weapon1: bombing plan c lv27
Weapon2: bombing plan c lv27
Vehicle: bazelart vulture lv26
Just starting request the helicopter. Then go and destroy the nests with it.
Use your two bombing plans and helicopter to kill the normal spiders.
Then get away from the enemy and request a new helicopter. Go for the remaining retarius(yellow/boack “spiders”. Thats it

I thought I answered this while waiting for others in a game lobby, but must have forgot to post it. If he means level 40 Starship, which is 37 in singleplayer, a basic strategy for Air Raider is as follows (and for anyone else who has trouble with it):
Equip a railgun as vehicle, doesn't really matter what the other 2 are, but consider turrets, life vendors, defence posts or limpet sniper.
- First deploy your railgun and follow the other railguns. Stay near the NPCs all mission. Kill transport ships with railgun when they open. Ignore the drones. As you get points, deploy spare railguns up to 3 to use when needed (so you don't have to wait for a new one to be delivered).
- Then kill hectors and ensure that all the ants from the transports are dead.
- Once the ground is clear of enemies (again, ignore the drones), shoot the genocide gun (big weapon thing under mothership) with the railgun.
- Once it dies, a hole under the mothership will open showing a red spot. Shoot this with railgun. It will drop fire to show it's taking damage like transport ships. When it's not visible, you can do other things like shoot drones, but be ready to shoot it again with railgun when it opens.
- When you do enough damage (or maybe just after some time) a bunch of panels will eject from the mothership and start shooting at you. Kill all of the lower set that fires the blue plasma shots. Ignore the upper red laser ones because they are weak.
- When they are dead, go back to shooting the hole.
- When you have done enough damage, mothership will rise up and deploy 'giant cannons'. Destroy these.
- When they are dead, go back to shooting the hole until the mothership dies.

Some people skip steps here, like focusing only on the hole to kill the mothership as fast as possible while ignoring the panels and giant cannons. It's safer to destroy them though, because otherwise they will kill off the NPCs reasonably quickly and then focus on you. That strategy works for pretty much all the classes with sniper weapons, although I think Air Raider has the easiest time with railguns and support equipment.
