Defences

Anti Ship Defences

This is a military ship, so it's no surprise that it's heavily guarded.

Anti Personnel Defences

the ship's interior has no defences

Trap

Ship wreckage after warheads are triggered

CargoShip MilitaryEscort Trap.jpg

This ship has 3 Warheads positioned to detonate in a chain reaction when a reverse thruster is fired.

If the warheads are detonated, there won't be much left of the ship to salvage (shown to the right).


Tactics

Approach

As of v1.23 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets aren't functioning.
So at this time, approach tactics are unclear.

Attack

However: as of v1.23 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets aren't functioning.
So at this time, attack tactics are unclear.
But one thing is clear, avoid shooting the explosives

Entry

There are 2 ways to enter this ship, from each side of the ship. These can be seen on the floor-plan below: CargoShip MilitaryEscort Floorplan.jpg

Disable

The reverse thruster trap can be disabled by either:

To gain access to the offending thruster, use the Grinder on the Interior Wall to the left of the Assembler.
You should then see the first Warhead in the trap's chain. Using a Grinder on a Warhead won't set it off, so you can remove that too.
Then use the Grinder on the Small Thruster, at least until it is disabled, then you're ready to go.

Alternatively, if you're in a hurry, you can manoeuvre the ship to where you need it by only applying thrust in a forward direction.
This will mean that you need to point the ship away from your destination before you switch on the dampeners.

Salvage

Cargo Containers:
Each of the 2 small cargo containers can easily be raided.

Reactors:
There are 2 small reactors accessible from the interior containing a total of 4kg of Uranium Ingot
