We've had the opportunity to study these devices in a limited fashion. As we discovered, they do contain some form of encrypted alien data. However, they're also completely reliant on an internal power supply, which, when depleted, renders the device inaccessible. The only means we've found to gather information from this equipment is by routing its internal power system through a crudely assembled interface that bypasses any built-in shutdown sequences. However, the alien data itself presented an even greater obstacle, as we're dealing with a programming language that is unlike anything found in our own systems. Fortunately, the research team is quite capable, and we quickly assembled a small group of our best analysts for the task. We've already begun to establish patterns in the alien encryption algorithm, revealing small bits of information that can be integrated into our research. | We've had the opportunity to study these devices in a limited fashion.

Notes
- Alien Nav Computers can only be recovered from any recovered UFO, although intact craft will yield more than damaged ones.
- Research benefits from the following Research Credit: UFO Technology.
- They are required to build Satellite Nexus facilities, Firestorm craft and Blaster Launchers, as well as the Foundry's Stealth Satellites project.
- Flight Computers can be sold at the Grey Market for §40 each.
