              Signals Pedro that the assistance is
              needed; Pedro will then do a flyby
              with his helicopter, bombing the ground
              around you with rockets. The flyby is
              done from the direction you are facing.

[Tactics]

 - Assistance is effective in clearing the whole screen
   from enemies without damaging you at all; In fact,
   when vastly outnumbered and about to die, calling
   assistance can save your life as you can regain
   some of your health while everything else is blowing
   up

 - You can call as many air strikes as you wish, but
   Pedro needs to resupply his helicopter between the
   flybys, which takes some time; After an air strike,
   the hand-held device will start a count down to
   when assistance is available again and will notify you
   about this even when you're using some other
   weapon

 - While assistance air strikes work best in clearing the
   room from smaller enemies, well placed air strike
   can hit larger enemies multiple times dealing a lot
   of damage
   
 - Assistance is a carpet bombardment targeted on
   your ground level and thus not very effective against
   enemies on higher ground

 - Pedro obviously can't provide air support to indoor
   environments

 - Since Pedro joins Pablo personally in multiplayer,
   assistance is unavailable in co-op games
