Erinna Zarx reports this sighting near the jump gate to get to stage 3:
2x spider drone I
1x Khanid Mashtori

The Khanid Mashtori does Massive EM damage with Paradise Cruise doing 1500hp per shot with 0% EM resist firing ever 10 seconds

STAGE 3
Update by Vitara DahReh and Teiresias:

On warp-in message from agent instructs you to destroy the Manufacturing Plant.
Resist info on NPCs is not available in NPC database yet, but appears to conform to Caldari Navy types.

Left Group
3x State Zen (Scorpion/Juggernauts/Jams)
2x Taibu State Tendai (Blackbird/Flameburst missiles/Jams)
3x Taibu State Yari (Kestrel/Thorn Rockets/Webs)

Right Group
3x Taibu State Samurai (Moa/Scourge missiles)
2x State Oni (Ferox/Scourge missiles)
1x State Kanpaku (Ferox/Scourge missiles)

Middle Group
3x Caldari Navy Temuras (Raven/Juggernauts)
3x Taibu State Nagasa (Crow (?)/Thorn Rocket/Web/Scramble)
2x State Shukuro Chugen (Blackbird/Scourge missiles)
2x State Shikuro Ashigaru (Blackbird/Scourge missiles)
4X Caldari Cruise Missile Battery

Tips - Engage each group seperately. Easy to tank the left and right groups and kill. The middle group should be left till last as the Temuras have an insanely strong shield tank and have 50% Kinetic as their weakest resist. After all three groups are dead destroy the Manufacturing Plant.

All Cruiser and Battlecruise class fired every 2.5 seconds with the Battleships firing every 8
The Caldari Cruise Missile Batteries never fired outside of 65k from them.

The Manufacturing Plant has a lot of HP so it will take a long time to kill. Estimate the total HP to be around the 250'000 HP just like the Imperial Stargate in part 4 of 5. Use your most damaging Ammunition and drones against the plant to destroy it faster.
