==Mission Briefing==
{{quote|Welcome back, pilot. Now, before we get to anything else there's the matter of money. If I'm going to be paying for your services, then securing some funds is our first priority. My knowledge plus your capabilities equals ISK.

I want you to acquire some valuable formulas for me. They're hidden away inside a deadspace research facility not far from here. I managed to come across the cordinates after a booster-addled Hyasyoda employee let slip about an arrangement to one of my associates. It seems her superiors are allowing criminal types to carry out illegal research in exchange for a cut of the profits... and clearly some of the merchandise too.

As it turns out, our friends in Sukuuvestaa are the legal owners of the space where this little operation is underway, something that certainly helps our situation. They've agreed to have Peace and Order security forces busy themselves with other things while you get to work.

Very foolish of Hyasyoda to mix themselves up with criminals in someone else's backyard, I'm sure you'll agree. I like to see it as an opportunity, however. Not only will we be securing State borders, but also teaching them a valuable lesson about owning one's choices fully. What do you say?}}

==Objectives==

#Destroy the Hyasyoda Research Facility and recover the [[S.I Formula Sheet]].<br />
#Return 1 x [[S.I Formula Sheet]] to agent. (0.1m3)

==Details==
This is a combat mission consisting of three waves of enemies. Each wave is spawned by destroying the trigger battleship. Destroying the Research Facility will spawn the container with the [[S.I Formula Sheet]] inside.

==Enemies==

*Initial Group (50-135km) 
**2x Elite Cruisers (Guardian Chief Sentinel)
**6x Battleships (Admiral/High Admiral/<font color="yellow">Vice Admiral</font>) <font color="yellow">''' Sensor Damp'''</font>
**'''Trigger: Last High/Vice Admiral Destroyed '''
*Wave 1 (30-60km)
**4x Elite Frigates (<font color="yellow">Guardian Patroller</font>/Guardian Protector/<font color="yellow">Guardian Watchman</font>) <font color="yellow">''' Sensor Damp'''</font>
**5x Battleships (Admiral/High Admiral/Grand Admiral)
**'''Trigger : Core Grand Admiral'''
*Wave 2 (30-60km) 
**5x Elite Frigates (Guardian Defender/Guardian Protector/<font color="red">Guardian Scout</font>) <font color="red">'''Web/Scram'''</font>
**5x Elite Cruisers (Guardian Chief Infantry/Guardian Chief Sentinel) 
**4x Battleships (Rear Admiral/<font color="yellow">Vice Admiral/Flotilla Admiral</font>) <font color="yellow">''' Sensor Damp'''</font>
*Hyasyoda Research Facility (40km)
**Spawns 8x Elite Frigates (Guardian Guard/Guardian Safeguard) (30-60km)
***When in armor
**{{note|The Hyasyoda Research Facility has about 155,000 hp with no resistances. More than one container spawns after its destruction.}}
**{{hint|Search all containers for the S.I Formula Sheet.}}
**{{hint| Kill all elite frigates and wait for the container with S.I. Formula Sheet to spawn}}

==Completion==

{{quote|Excellent work, pilot. I have to say... it's somewhat pleasing to watch Hyasyoda executives seethe quietly about a theft they cannot report. Hopefully they've learned the same lesson we in NOH did many years ago.

Well... no... actually, I hope they screw up this badly every day.

Get back to me when you are ready to discuss how we're going to sell this.}}

==Rewards==

5,000,000 credits.<br />
'''Bonus Rewards:''' 1,910,000 credits if completed within 6 hours.<br />
Bounty: ~15,250,000<br />
Total: 22,160,000 Credits

==Notes==

This mission may be accepted remotely. Return to the agent to complete the mission. This mission requires tanking multiple battleships.

==Additional Information==
====Bad Habits====

Rivalry among the corporations of the Caldari State is a daily reality, even today. The breakdown of relations with the Federation, opportunistic Guristas invasions and countless other problems facing the Caldari people have done little to ease inter-corporate tensions, some of which predate the existence of the State itself. 

In other situations, rather than unifying the Caldari people, external threats only cause further divisiveness, and it is not uncommon for such issues to be leapt upon and twisted towards serving the agenda of one corporation or another. Survival within the harsh political arenas of the State requires a mastery of political cunning. To succeed requires even more – not only the ability to deeply understand events, but the capacity to shape them as well.
====Acceptance====

Excellent, here are the coordinates. You'll be flying into a heavily guarded facility owned by Serpentis forces. Find their laboratories and take them out. Intel reports a large amount of Core Admiralty docked inside or patrolling nearby in battleships. They won't be flying alone, so expect smaller support craft wherever you see them.

Once you've recovered the formula sheets we can make arrangements to sell them. You'll need me for that, so don't get any smart ideas about keeping them for yourself. No successful Caldari ever worked alone.
