I understand what you're going through with Mission 12. When you are first allowed to shoot down the enemy aircraft, you do not have access to Allied Support because you have no allies. Only Shamrock is with you. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is by flying at high speed, destroying the nearby enemy ECM towers, and hoping that you can turn and shoot down a few planes. After you shoot down a few planes, friendly pilots will come in and your Allied Support gauge will fill up to 100% immediately. You can then request for support as necessary, but you do need to do some of the heavy lifting yourself and shoot down a few aircraft.
