Order the fighter and corvette groups to target a destroyer, and set their tactics to evasive so they dodge enemy fire better. Use your capital-ship group, and attack all the Taiidan ion cannon frigates. You should make short work of them. Move on to the destroyers. Continue attacking any remaining Taiidan ships until the heavy cruiser is the only one left.

It's time to bring in your salvage group. Direct your salvage corvettes to target the heavy cruiser. Move your interceptors around the heavy cruiser in an attempt to divert its fire away from the salvage corvettes. The heavy cruiser will target the salvage corvettes, so try to come in from behind. Make sure your capital-ship and corvette groups aren't attacking the heavy cruiser. It only takes five salvage corvettes to snag the heavy cruiser, but you should bring eight in case you lose some along the way.

Your salvage target should be the enemy heavy cruiser. Be sure to divert its attention away from your salvage corvettes by using strike craft.
After the heavy cruiser is captured and the rest of the Taiidan fleet destroyed, the Bentusi mothership thanks you for your assistance and reveals information about your history and your Homeworld. Watch the extended cutscene. You'll be given the order to hyperspace, but spend time collecting the small amount of resources in the area and prepare your fleet for the next mission.

Make sure you have 10-12 capital ships, eight to ten corvettes, and several squads of interceptors and attack bombers before you hyperspace to mission 12. Also, use the launch menu to keep your strike craft and corvettes docked with the mothership.
