Nice. This strategy depends upon whether you are playing the AI or a human player. Against the AI is easier (surprise!) as the AI will choose a target and keep firing at it regardless of whether it is disrupted or not.

It takes three moves to overrun the 88s. This allows the 88s three turns of shots - the first being opfire. You end up with a roughly 2/3rds success rate though your expected losses are higher than the previous strategies (typical ruskies!) as those mechanisms succeed most often when the 88 is disrupted before it can fire at all, whereas the "bullrush" allows the 88 to do its worst.

Against a human opponent the chance of success falls significantly, to below 50/50 as the disruption results on the approach really hurt.
