Sansha Owned Station is an Expedition that can escalate from Minor Sansha Annex.

Walkthrough

Escalation start
To your surprise, the Overseer seems to have spent the last moments of his life sending some message to your ship on a private channel, a fact you learn from a blinking entry on your communication panel a few seconds after his innards slid across your windshield, bounced along your fuselage and were sucked into your thrusters. It appears he wanted to save his life by telling you the whereabouts of some place you could load your cargohold with riches, but before he could get very far with his offer, his journey ended. All you have is some hysteric babble about a hidden mining station at a certain location.

First Location

Ungated pocket. None of the structures drop loot.

Destroying all ships or the True Sansha commander can trigger escalation.

Escalation trigger
Among the things you find are a few drones. Running a scan on their control units reveals they have been used not long ago, at another place not far away from here.

Second Location

You land at an acceleration gate.

Escalation dead-end
All these moon mining stations suggest there must be a station or outpost somewhere in the region servicing them and refining the raw materials they produce. Again you look for clues from the drones, but the data you extract suggests no new locations, only the two you have been at already. If the Sansha have any more stations in the area, this is not where you will find them.

Third Location

On warp-in
You see a large Starbase near the beacon you just warped to. It seems to be guarded by the Sansha's Nation. Perhaps you are closer to finding something of value ....

Escalation trigger
Going through data scanned during the destruction of the station itself, you notice reports from a place called "R&D division Gray", containing information on blueprint research and booster production and even the location of this base "Gray".

Fourth Location

On warp-in
You see a large Starbase near the beacon you just warped to. It seems to be guarded by the Sansha's Nation. Perhaps you are closer to finding something of value ....

The Sansha Research Outpost has a smartbomb that triggers when it is attacked. The smartbombs deal heavy damage but don't affect anything beyond 50 km. It does not have that many hitpoints (4000 in shield, 4000 in armor and 400 in structure), so taking it out is actually fairly easy.

In local:
This Research Station has a built-in defense system. As soon as it is attacked, the inhabitants activate the system, causing a large blast-wave which affects all hostile ships in the vicinity. It is activated continuously until it needs a short delay to recharge power.
Expedition end
Now, you kind of regret killing the Overseer back there, it is always useful to know corrupt leaders who are ready to sell out things like this outpost in exchange for something as cheap as their own petty lives.

Loot

Typical loot from the True Sansha commanders include criminal dog tags, faction ammunition and meta modules. They also have a chance to drop True Sansha faction modules. The Sansha Research Outpost can drop Centum A-Type cruiser modules, True Sansha modules and possibly a rare 1-run Phantasm BPC.
