Additional Information

The Abductor is a medium-class vessel, piloted almost exclusively by Floaters. It is used in Alien Abduction missions, and sometimes Alien Harvest missions. It is the only ship containing examination rooms on board. The weapon systems of this craft are short range, and can be taken down with a craft armed with a Plasma Beam without danger.

Ship Layout

The Abductor is a two-storey ship. The entrance on the first floor is in the middle of the ship, on the south side. This opens into an antechamber, which leads onto the Examination Room. Depending on skill level, there will be either 1-2 aliens or an entire firing line within these two rooms, the examination room can be a particular difficulty. Through the Examination Room, is the engine room, which is narrow and traces along three sides of the ship. You may find an engineer by either UFO Power Source on the east and west wings of the room. A teleporter to the second floor is at the end of the western wing.

The second floor branches from the teleporter to the north and the east. The northern hall leads to a dead end, though you will sometimes find a Floater hiding in the corner. The eastern hall curves around to the bridge entry. You will typically find at least one or two Floaters at the door or inside this room, and waiting to ambush you from the corners of the eastern hallway.

Hidden Navigations

Location of 3 "hidden" navigation parts in the Abductor UFO.

From inside the bridge of the Abductor on L1, you may see only 2 navigation parts: a console on the West wall and a piece of a table located in the NW corner. Yet, when the mission ends you recover a total of 5. What gives? Well, there are actually 3 more navigation parts tucked into the other corners of the bridge. Due to the orientation of the map, the bridge walls are blocking you from seeing them. The picture to the right details the location (circled in red) of the navigations while the second part of the image is a modified Abductor floorplan which shows them without the walls in the way.
