The pocket will be filled with 30 wrecks that must be [[salvage]]d. Salvaging drones, [[MTU]]s and tractor beams cannot be used. You have to fly close enough to each wreck to run your high slot salvagers on it. There are hostile ships that will attack you, which you can ignore, if your self-rep is decent, or kill depending on your fleet composition. NPCs will target and kill drones. 3 destroyers (confirmed with Algos and Dragoon fits) fitted as T1 Passive Shield tank or Navy Frigate with active tank (confirmed with Navy Comet) works well.
Salvage Research is a Homefront Operation site found throughout high-security Empire space. It is designed for a fleet of three pilots. There are no regional differences in the site’s enemies or layout.
Salvagers need to have at least 20% Difficulty Bonus for them to work ({{Sk|Salvaging|IV}} or a [[rig]] is needed) (20% however makes those sites rather difficult, 30-35% is recommended)
 
The operation takes place in a deadspace pocket with an acceleration gate that allows the following ships:
 
* T1 Frigate (including Navy and Faction)
* T1 Destroyer (excluding Navy and Faction)
* Venture
 
The pocket contains 30 wrecks that must be salvaged within 20 minutes. Mobile Tractor Units and tractor beams are prohibited—you must approach each wreck and use high-slot salvagers directly. Be aware that hostile ships can target and destroy salvage drones.
 
Salvagers must have at least a 20% Difficulty Bonus to function (Salvaging IV or a rig is required). At 20%, these sites are quite difficult; 30–35% is recommended.
 
Hostile ships will spawn and engage you. These can be ignored if your tank is strong enough, speed-tanked if you’re fast, or destroyed depending on your fleet composition.
 
A malfunctioning Werpost is located in the pocket. It can be activated with a Data Analyzer module; once online, it will attack enemy ships with its disintegrator weapon.
 
Optimal payout for a fleet of three pilots is 11,025,000 ISK per capsuleer upon completion of the mission. The 30 salvaged "Encrypted ‘Istina’ Data" items can be sold to NPC buy orders for an additional 3,000,000 ISK to be shared among the pilots.
