Stealth OXP by Thargoid.

This is a little mission OXP set in Galaxy 3, designed to showcase what can be done in Oolite with scanner lollipop colours and the creation of stealth ships which do not appear (in this case programmed to only be visible when they are attacking prey). 

A squadron of six experimental stealth Barracuda fighters have been stolen by a pirate gang and are preying on innocent traders. The navy needs someone to take care of business and take them out, and your name's in the frame.

To kick off the mission, fly to the main station in the Beenbeor system.

Requirements -

This OXP is scripted for Oolite v1.76 or later, and will not run on any earlier versions of the game. 

The mission is set in Galaxy 3, and requires the player to have at least 512 kills to their name. If these conditions are met then the mission will be offered on docking, after which time reminder instructions are provided in mission screens with pointers via the manifest (F5-F5) screen.
