Helldivers 2: How to activate “Fuel transport shuttle incoming”

Fuel Transport Shuttle Incoming objective in Helldivers 2.

This Helldivers 2 guide explains how to activate the “Fuel transport shuttle incoming” objective in the Enable E-710 Extraction mission.

Helldivers 2 features a variety of missions spread out across the galaxy. There are also two different alien races to fight against – the Terminids and Automatons.

Depending on whether you’re fighting the bugs or robots, the missions will be different. Each mission has its own unique objectives that players must complete.

However, mission objectives aren’t always well-explained and can be difficult to figure out. This can leave you stuck and not knowing what to do next.

One mission like this is Enable E-710 Extraction. Things get somewhat confusing when you reach the second half of the mission and you receive a notification/objective stating “Fuel transport shuttle incoming”.

That’s because the shuttle might not appear, and you’ll probably be unsure why this is.

So, if you’ve activated the terminal and are waiting for the shuttle to arrive but it won’t appear, here’s what you need to do.

To get the fuel transport shuttle to appear, you must find and turn the fuel valve shown on the terminal screen.

For example, the terminal will show a large red X symbol along with a letter and number such as “1A”. This means there’s a fuel valve you must interact with.

Explore the surrounding area and examine the fuel pipes running along the ground. The valve will be coloured yellow and feature the letter and number shown on the terminal, as you can see in the image below.

Look for a fuel valve like this and interact with it.

Once you have found the valve, turn it to release the fuel. The light on the valve will turn from red to green if you have done this correctly.

You can now return to the terminal and proceed to the next step. Now, all you need to do is wait for the shuttle to arrive and follow the on-screen objectives to transfer the fuel.
