== Trivia ==
* It is codenamed as '''Hex Penetrator''' internally. It is an anagram for "Pre XenoThreat" that came up randomly by Mission Designer [[StarCitizen:Lars den Herder]]. It was a temporary codename to circumvent dataminers. However, the other developers started using the codename on documentations and it was too late to change it. [[StarCitizen:Chris Roberts]] laughed about it and told the mission team to change the codename, unfortunately it was forgotten.<ref name="isc"/>
