So I take a mission to assassinate a terrorist leader, says go this system, this base and interface with the comms array for target's location. So I get there and the base is some unlandable imperial base with navy cutters and clippers patrolling and an exclusion zone. I'm guessing I would have got blown away by the base and the ships if I had continued?
Mission Impossible?

Unless you are very very very good. What lvl does the mission have?
Base defenses seem tied to your rank. My experience in going to med sec (regardless of +, ++, +++ size) had me facing 4 to 5 ships of air cover on top of the usual base defenses. Another guy that is Deadly said he never sees air cover when he raids med sec bases. I know that's only two data points, but it was consistent.
I now make sure the base is not med/high sec before taking missions like that. If I don't know the sec level, I don't take it.
I suggested adding the sec level to the sys map when you look at a base, but right now, the only way to tell is to be in the system.

This sounds like a job for the srv, land outside the exclusion zone, deploy srv, instantly dismiss ship, not knowing the layout I cannot help much further, what I do is look for a clear path to the comm array before heading in, scan, them get the fluck out of there, I drive for about 1-2km before recalling the ship.
