Starfield - Walkthrough [Part 18] Groundpounder

This mission is a rescue mission that in the later stages requires you to take on 3 Spacer Ships at the same time - twice. This was the first time that I noticed that the stock ship just wasn't enough. I got blown out of the sky 4 or 5 times before I headed to Akila and upgraded the shields, engine and guns. After that, they weren't a problem.
