*Further Info:

**The objective is in the office facility.

**Single pocket without acceleration gate. The objective is in the office facility, guarded by a single NPC battleship.

**~~Single pocket with the~~ following NPCs: 9 Frigates, 4 Cruisers, and 6 Battleships.

**The following NPCs will spawn when the facility is closer tan ~125km: 9 Frigates, 4 Cruisers, and 6 Battleships.

**Cruisers have very strong jams and range > 170km - expect to be nearly perma jammed.

**Frigates warp scramble (2 warp strength).

**~~The two points above make me recommend~~ to ~~bring~~ F.O.F. missiles ~~to shoot while jammed~~.

**With one meta 4 ECCM (96%) it is possible to avoid most - but not all - of the jams.

**With good missile skills you can use FOF Cruise missiles from 200k+ which is well out of range from the NPCs.

**Because of the jams F.O.F. missiles might be effective. With good missile skills you can use FOF Cruise missiles from 200k+ which is well out of range from the NPCs.

**Alternatively, equip a sensor booster to be able to target the jammers from outside their range.

**You can also bring a friend in a fast frigate to draw their scrams and jams while you take those out. If the frigate maintains at least 600 m/s then it should be able to self-repair the reduced missile damage, but there is some more-sophisticated AI in this mission so the NPCs may switch targets anyway.
