Mission Briefing
I've come to notice that whenever we rescue people, there are often less Ishukone crew members and staff than the rest. My suspicion is that Ishukone personnel are being taken elsewhere. I need you to investigate the matter for me and find out what's going on.
Your first step will be to acquire a special type of security ID handed out to Federation Navy P.O.W transports operating in Black Rise. The target will be a shipyard that implants these ID tags on ships. First, you'll need to secure it. I
have reliable intelligence claiming that an initial strike on their Communications Array will mean they can't call out for reinforcements, so you may want to factor that in to your battle plan. Once the area is cleared, you'll need to hack into the shipyard, so train up some basic hacking skills if you've never done so before.
This facility will be heavily defended. If you brought down a faster, smaller ship to Astoh then leave it here. For now though, I suggest you arm yourself to the teeth. This won't be easy.
Objective
Destroy all guards and provide 1 FedNav F.O.F. Identifier Tag AC-106V:FNSBR (0.1 m3) to agent.
Rewards
10,000,000 credits
Bonus: 1,720,000 if completed within 6 Hours.
