Tip
There is some drone aggression in this mission, but as there is some heavy dampening, it's advisable to leave your drones out so they can start killing the dampening ships.Fitting at least one Sensor Booster module is very helpful as well, do not forget to bring scripts. Or for Missile Folks just bring a good supply of F.O.F they work well in this situation.
