Briefing
MISSION SPECS Area of Operation: Nyx System Hostile Forces: Unknown Equipment Specs: Combat-rated Ship, Personal Arms Briefing: InterSec has been enlisted by the UEE to gather intel on a group of black marketeers dealing in Vanduul parts, that have been linked to the illegal Vanduul experiments happening at ASD’s Onyx Facility. The UEE is eager to understand and put an end to their operations. Based on evidence extracted from the ASD facilities, we’ve potentially managed to track down the location of one of their storage sites. Once accepted, head over to the old QV Planet Services Logistics station and we’ll be in touch.

The developers' own rating, in their own words. The score is their weighted blend of the four axes; the hardest axis is the one worth reading, since a contract that is easy to fly can still be the one that kills you.
What players report
No player reports yet. The SC Overlay asks what a mission involved right after you finish it — the game files only say who gave it to you, not what you actually did.
Before you can take it
Completing it marks you with Inter Sec Defense Solutions — which is what later contracts in this chain check for.
Requirements
Availability
Durations come from the game files, which record them as plain numbers with no unit — read as minutes.
