In mission four I can't sneak up on the captain. I've tried probably hundreds of times and he always sees me coming! Are there any tips you guys have for not letting the captain see me? Thanks.

Shoot him with an airfoil round to daze him. It is possible to sneak up on him (I've always done it that way [sometimes I like a challenge]), but from what I hear, the airfoil route is easier. If you don't have an airfoil round...well...keep sneaking. Watch his pattern closely. If you move at just the right moment, you should be able to sneak up behind him before he turns around.
There are several 'stealth' ways to sneak up on him, rather than use an airfoil.
1. From the previous room, go through the upper door which opens to a 'ramp' that leads down to the fuel area. Stay at the bottom, looking around the corner and wait (it will seem like forever). The captain will show up, then head to the right out of sight, come back and head right again. On his second trip back he will head around the central core, but pause just before moving on - this is the point that you move out after him. Follow him at a speed that will cause you to come up behind him as he pauses on the other side of the central core - grab him! Take him out and head up the ladders to extraction...
2. From the previous room, go to the lower door (fan room) and find the switch that disables the fan/stirrer/whatever it is and head into the fuel. Swim up to the ramp and when the captain moves away you can pull yourself up and get behind him for the grab, or from this position you can cap him with a bullet to the head. NOTE: This is the best description I can give from other's posts as I have never used this route as I've found the first route easy enuf for me...
hey I just beat Supertanker mission 10 minutes ago.
just hurry up to the fuel room and when he turns around just follow him, but remember - go faster than him to catch up, but not too fast so he doesn't hear you
