How do you access Mission 46?
According to this link, you are needing to have:
-
Complete all of the main story missions (excluding the repeat missions) before and after this mission.
-
You must also complete all of the important Side Ops indicated in yellow.
-
Listen to all of the yellow cassette tapes
-
You will need a fully upgraded Mother Base and all of its platforms.
If I remember correctly, there are about 49 total missions but Mission 46 marks the end of the story, Truth.
Due to comments, I will probably say a nearly fully upgraded Mother Base instead of a fully upgraded one. Maybe this link could help you unlock mission 46: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/718564-metal-gear-solid-v-the-phantom-pain/72466817

I just want to leave here my experience.
I had done mission 45 and side ops 150.
I did a lot of side ops but mission 46 wouldnt pop.
What I did was trigger all my tapes which were not heard and then did ONE side op.
Upon completion mission 46 immediately appeared in the list.
Mother Base had absolutely nothing to do with it.
