Why it works
The opening map names a concrete event and locates it by 0:03, then zooms into the base and its consequences at 0:03.6–0:07; the strongest replay peak falls at 0:05.6–0:06.2. After a brief aircraft insert, one 44.58-second animated map follows the mission through refueling waypoints and delivers its quantified result around 0:44–0:47. The moving route, pins, icons, labels, and synced captions keep that long shot readable without frequent cuts.
