"All right then."
Fire the burny stuff off the back of the APC, take every precaution possible to avoid hitting our APC.

Give Jack said burny stuff (i.e. namite ammo for goop thrower) so that he can use it to fire at pursuers. If i can assist in some useful way do so, otherwise just hunker down.

If there's another hole that I can see/aim out of, shoot my shotgun out the back of the APC.

In that case, wait for pickup, and try and avoid hitting any satellites.

((Dang. Oh well.))
Slap a comcast one for me.

Oh man I haven't seen trees in forever.

Admire nature in my state of shock.
You suddenly realize the absolute fractal nature of life, then have a small stroke and forget it.

Figure out if I'm in the woods or the APC or what.
You're in a box, in the apc.

Well, I think most of the people with body armor are going up there of their own accord, but we'll assume you shove yttra up there. She's got some body armor. Though she strikes me as someone who would struggle. A lot.

Jack pulls aside one of the riot shields and jams the barrel of the namite thrower through the hole. After that there's not much else to do but just hold the trigger and start wiggling it back and forth like a homicidal sprinkler. Taddock shoulders in next to him and starts firing his shotgun out a nearby hole, pumping it against the jagged metal between shots.

After the namite canister is empty and the shotgun is spent, Jack yanks the gun back out of the hole and peeks through. There are no longer any cars behind them; though there is a lot of fire quickly fading into the distance as the APC speeds away.

"Looks like we're clear for now."

Can we assume the previous turn was a dynamic bonus?

Regardless of the above, just go full speed towards the APC. Land between it and the police cars. Brace.

You'll be up to them at the end of next turn. The helicopters will be following though.

Is the APC close enough to the spaceport for me to do plan "Grab the APC and fly it to the spaceport" yet? If yes, do that.

Else, do an Immelmann turn (half-loop) so that I end up higher and facing towards the helicopters. Attempt to stay higher than they are and keep moving between them at high speeds, so as to make using their guns on me and acquiring a missile lock harder.

Try hitting their rotors or tails with the Mining Laser and Violet Mode to make them crash.

If they shoot missiles at me, use Indigo Mode and Mining Laser against them as a countermeasure while attempting to dodge.

If at any time the APC is ready to be evacuated, disengage and evacuate.

EDIT: If they are too many for the above tactic to work, then stay low, use the buildings for cover and take potshots at them while quickly moving between cover with rocket assisted jumps to avoid missile strikes.

Fistbump Jack. Reload. Poke my head out of the top hatch and be on the lookout for trouble.

"Good job guys. Now we just need to lose those helis, and we're in the clear. I don't think taking them down peacefully is an option now, so I'm afraid we'll just have to kick them till they leave. Unless any of you have any ideas on how to sneak away? If not,  Flint, you probably have the best tools for bringing the pain with you. I'm sorry for asking you this."

Be very impressed by what that guy did. Decide not to jump out, just shoot at anything that shoots back at us.

"GOOD JOB MEN!"
be ready to reinforce defensive line by ripping off pieces of apc armor that are too damaged to be useful and reinforcing the shields with them

Punch Konrad.
club back, harder
