I just had the same thing. Was ordered to do a recon of Osaka, did it, then was assigned to patrol of Honshu. Did that, ended patrol, and very next one, another order to recon Osaka again.

Every one I've done was 48 hours, but stay within 50 nm of middle of star. If in that 48 hours you do not get any tonnage don't go home or command will just send you back again ( or even a desk job

shudder ). Best to get at least 30,000 tonnes on the books to make command say "Cheers"

When you complete an objective radio in. As long as you have ordnance and fuel on board you will get new objectives. Complete them all and then RTB.

This should prevent recurring patrol objectives and early retirement.

Do not complete one objective and then go off frelancing or RTB. Sooner or later (usually sooner) you will be retired.
