I got one FP Olmekron in Eclipse Clouds. It was harassing one of my freighters and shortly afterward appeared in Murky Skies, already rather battered by the station defense.

You can get ATL Arawns in Reef's Edge (Cold Star/Quarry). Often one of them is "guarding" the ATL Colony Outpost.
How many factions are you enemies with that aren't already pirates? :D

I've heard the same with Tristars, which might be a bit quicker if I haven't taken out the FFPs first (HIT/MA turret has 7,000 hull, but an FFP Mk1 provides 50,000 shield). Haven't started testing either of those out yet, but I'd probably end up saving them for big targets where I still need to wipe out everything (because I capture Titurels quite intact anymore). Also need to test Constrictor missiles. Sometimes I find the prey well enough away from trouble to start with, but it seems most of the time I find them near trouble and I want them to be able to run and then be able to stop them when I want. Still working out an efficient sequence for taking out all 6 of a Titurel's engines quickly while it's boosting.

How often do you see Astrobees choosing other targets than the one you selected?

None. I'm working towards +30 for most of them.

The freighters in OL are all FP, in Cold Star are all ATL, in Albion it's SUW.
