Found an Osprey Vanguard in Hewa's Twin V - Southmost edge on the right side by a couple stations. Both are TEL High Tec Factory (I, II). :D

@ Jangulorr: Yes, depending on the game start and player pilot, during the PHQ plot where you do some escorting you will find on your route one of a newly-spawned abandoned Cerberus in Argon space, a Gorgon in Split space, or an Osprey in Teladi space. Locations can vary somewhat but you should see one of them somewhere on the escorting route. You will not find more than the appropriate one of these resulting from that part of the plot.

It's not game start related, but where you find that initial signal leak. If it's in ARG space you get the Cerberus for example. I usually do either the same start (Young Gun) or a custom one and, every time, it's where I choose to look for that first leak that influences what free ship I get. Sadly, doing it in TER or POI space does not yield their ship of this class. Shame. Got a Cerberus this time I scanned the leak in ARG space on a custom start where I began the game in a remote, Eastern TEL sector.

How is the OP finding ZXY Coordinates? I am unable to find anywhere in the game where coordinates are indicated on the map and I can't seem to find any resource in the interwebs about how to do just that. I'd been hoping to find the first ship he listed in Grand Exchange 1 since I was in the area, but no luck figuring out how far to go in that direction and nothing pings on long range scans. I even put out 2 satellites to see if that would pick something up.

Coordinates are not displayed ingame. We can get them from the game files by looking up their spwan location.

In game you can estimate your location by noting the distance to targeted reference points.

The Elite Vanguard is 365 km from Superhighway to Grand Exchange III not I. It is 33km above the ecliptic so out of scanner range so drop an adv. satellite and retrieve it later.

Yes, that's some kind of Kingdom End DLC mini-story related ship.
I run into it as well, but don't remember exact location. Ship's macro is "ship_bor_s_miner_solid_01_story_macro".

With the Boron Start, can confirm the Osprey can be found in Company Regard.

Usually it was depending the start race, a frigate of that race (Argon, Paranid, Teladi) was found in the relevant sector when the game started, but seems Boron get the Teladi frigate.

No, the Company Regard frigate is not related to the HQ at all.
Right on commander !

Hello,
I just found a Fighter named "Velvet Thunder" not referenced here.

Found in "Getsu Fune" next to the Savage Spur II gate, really close, almost glued.
It's an Earth Gladius fighter, with a special black, red and white paint job, very classy.

Game no modified.

It's Haile Shinamon's Ship, you need to do a few missions of the "Defenders of Sol" questline for it to appear.

Ok .. dumb question, but how do you see the coordinates on the map? I'm trying to find the location in Silent Witness XII, but the map is choked with mines and it's impossible to find anything. Being able to see my map coordinates would be handy.
