Mission briefing
We have reason to believe that equipment which was stolen from our storage silo near <Station> is going to be laundered through an unlicensed Merchants Hub in <System>. It is a privately owned trading outpost which is renowned for attracting criminal elements, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised that such activity is going on there.

We believe the goods are being transported to the outpost as we speak, in an industrial, a Bestower to be exact. I want you to fly out there immediately and find the equipment and bring it back to us. It may still be located in the same sealed containers as when it was stolen.

You have full authority to shoot anything that threatens you near the outpost, <Pilot>. They might send some of their mercenary ships to intercept you, once they know what you're after. After all, if we can prove the tycoon who owns that place had anything to do with the theft, we'll have the perfect excuse to bring that scrapheap down for good.

Blitz: Kill all enemy ships in Pocket 1. Destroying the Docked Bestower in Pocket 2 and retrieving the content will complete the mission. You may also want to destroy the Starbase Control Tower before destroying the Docked Bestower so that you won't bump into it on your way (Its HP is between 2.5k and 50k so very easy to destroy).
