XCOM2 wotc ironman legend PS5 -black market strategy- episode 65 ‘destroy the disruptor’

So no walkthrough/playthru is complete without the ‘destroy the disruptor’ mission!
It generally turns up very late in the campaign (as it does now) but occasionally it does turn up midway when it is very difficult to complete.
I was really looking forward to this episode being about 2 mins long because with 3 blaster launchers on the first turn it should be ‘mission completed’…
…unfortunately the mischievous ai 🤖 has decided to place the disruptor out of range!
Hmmmm…🤔
Unedited continuous gameplay.
