Heh - if you haven't had these yet a little heads up.
Both of them are JAM CARNIVALS. Suggestion - take a friend with you. Or better still, if you have a second account that can fly command ships send that in first to take the numerous waves of aggro then go in a cap transfer your alt or buddy while he leaves his shield boost on and you pop everything in sight.
Recon part 1 is stonking parts. 2 and 3 are solo-able. Don't waste your torps on the station in part 2. The loot will make you yawn.
The Assault - is quite literally an assault. I went in with 96% resis therm and kinetic on my 2nd accounts nighthawk - a Thons inv field and faction other sh*t - and still needed cap support from my mains cap-trans.
Great bounties on each mission and both very enjoyable - if you've got a mop for the loot - lots of mins there for someone.
Scramblers in part two of recon.. but aggro is pretty tame. No scramblers in Assault.
Have fun! And post anything I missed :P

Both missions are easy, but then again...it depends on who you're up against. Both missions are Sansha, so not much to worry about.
Recon mission is one I don't even fight in. I just use my Inteceptor and score the LP as fast as possible to get to the next mission.

Assault isnt a jam fest.

This is my setup and I solo both of those mission routinely with ease.
Raven:
6x 'Arbalest' Cruise Missile Launcher
1x Heavy Diminishing System Power Drain
1x X-Large Shield Booster II
1x Heavy Electrochemical Capacitor Booster (800s)
2x T2 Mission Specific Hardeners
2x Invulnerability Field II
2x Power Diagnostic Unit II
1x Damage Control II
2x Ballistic Control System II
3x Capacitor Control Circuit
Seriously, those missions are cake.

All I got out of the Recon was a lag fest, almost lost the raven and lost a brand spanking new cov ops ship due to lag. Needless to say its up for petition.

Rasberry?
The assault, while not particularly hard, is really annoying due to the near perma-jamming. I like having backup with remote eccm.
Failing that, use the fast frig tank. Fast frig goes in, gets agro, flys away with npcs in tow. Lines them up nicely for easy popping. Can leave when jamming ships are dead.

Geez when you make these posts at least mention which enemy faction you have to face. From Caldari agents you tend to get the guristas perma jam sessions, from gallente agents it's serpentis mostly for these two (well 2/3 recon is mercs always i think), I'm guessing amarr gets sansha's and minnies get angels.
And yes you don't need to kill stuff in recon 1/3 last I checked (but sod it I kill everything).
All the stuff above does not necessarily reflect my corp, my alliance or even me..

Did guristas recon earlier this week, and I have to say 1/3 is a tad worse than angel recon. There are several ways of defeating the permajam though. I prefer fofs. But other non-missile ships may use drones or eccm. Or you could as mentioned, just fly to the gate and activate it without killing anything.
Remember: the name of the mission is 'Recon'. It's not 'Pirate Slaughter part II' :)

I do them against Gurista. The jamming isn't too bad really, but then I do target the jammers as I go along. I fly an Nighthawk so I don't have to worry about incoming damage.
My shield tends to stabilise at around 55%.
