MISSION 3/3B
Location: Elis ship graveyard, Earth orbit
Background
Ned and Hannah perform a routine reconnaissance mission, and stumble upon a Federation superweapon.
Walkthrough
Your loadout is locked for this mission.
You'll start out launching from the Chanticleer's hangar. Once the dialogue is complete, hit alt-J and jump to Earth.
When you arrive at Earth, fly to Beacon 42 and scan it. You'll detect a subspace anomaly deeper into the graveyard. As you get closer, you'll see it's a huge, unknown class of ship, the likes of which nobody in the GTVA has ever seen before. Chanticleer control will tell you to approach and scan it. As you get closer, the mysterious ship will warp out and the station will start deploying fighters. Jump out immediately, unless you really feel the need to dogfight endless waves of White Guard fighters.
