Traffic Stop Haulers

This 3 man Homefront Operation site is found throughout high-security Empire space. There are no regional differences in the site’s enemies or layout.

Pilots should resist EMdamage type. There is no EWAR being deployed in the site.

You need to cargo scan incoming ships for 10 minutes. If any of them possess contraband data, you need to use stasis webifier and destroy them. Once the enemy hauler is caught, it will deploy drones to attack your ship and greatly increase its speed in an attempt to reach the destination.

This site takes the full 9 minutes, and you need to ensure both victory criteria are met (1) don't let 5 ships carrying contraband dock up; and (2) don't shoot or kill more than 2 civilians. The mission will fail if either of those occur prior to the 9-minute timer on the site ending.
