Heh! this is great stuff. You should compile all the mission briefings you corrected into a zip.

EDIT:
The ones you have question marks after are all acceptable as they are, though the corrections are a tad more clear.

The helicopter is an object, not exactly a place, so either at or with could do.

"Blue Block" could be the entire name for that portion of the building, but your edit is a little more clear.

Enemy can be used collectively as the entire force, as they apparently don't have a name, your edit refers to only the individuals who built it. It's not wrong because what happened isn't totally exact.

Also a Harrier is a real vehicle.

Yes, I know about that. I even had a big discussion about it with PetiX a few days ago :p
Fact is, if you look at the mission, the engine failure you gotta fix *is* located on a Carrier, not a Harrier. That explains.
