Once you've teleported to the 1-of-a-Kind Salvage, move forward and go inside the first airlock on your right that's guarded by turrets. Once you're inside, the shelf with the UC Defense Manual 01 should be on the platform on the other side from where you're standing, right next to a big chest. |

| How to Get | |||||||||||||||
| UC Defense Manual 04 is a randomly generated Skill Magazine that appears in Abandoned Weapons Outposts and Abandoned Weapon Stations.
These outposts have been observed to typically appear on Moons, but could possibly appear on some planets as well. Once you're able to locate one, keep an eye out for structures with a second floor. We found ours in Piazzi III-A in the Piazzi star system. The Magazine should be behind a set of orange locked doors on the second floor of a structure within the outpost. |
