Fortification is a level 12 station mission in Star Trek Fleet Command with one objective: upgrade Defense Platform A to level 2. It runs at warp 1, never sends your ship anywhere and pays 6,000 Parsteel. Finishing it unlocks the next story mission. The reward is slightly more than the Parsteel the upgrade costs, so the mission effectively pays for the build.
Fortification objectives
Es gibt ein Ziel und keine Verzweigung:
- Upgrade Defense Platform A to Level 2.
No system, hostile or donation is involved. The story line is simply to upgrade the station’s defenses, and the mission completes when Defense Platform A reaches level 2.
Wo und welcher Warp
Warp 1 to start and warp 1 to complete, with no pickup system. The whole mission happens at your station.
The recommended level is 12, the same as the mission before it.
Fortification rewards
The reward is 6,000 Parsteel. Completing the mission also unlocks the next one in the chain.
What the Defense Platform A level 2 upgrade needs
Defense Platform A level 2 costs 5,500 Parsteel and 200 Tritanium and takes 3 minutes to build. It requires R&D Department level 13 and Drydock A level 3. The 6,000 Parsteel from Fortification covers the Parsteel cost with 500 to spare. More detail on every platform is on the Verteidigungsplattformen .
A separate station mission, Aufrüstung der Verteidigungsplattform A auf Stufe 2, has the same objective and pays 300 Tritanium and four 1 Minute Repair Speed Ups.
Fortification and neighbouring missions
Before Fortification comes Fataler Fehler, where you find and acquire the artifact on Rigel. After it comes Hush, where you collect five datapads containing Renba’s research.
| Mission | Recommended level | Warp zum Abschließen | Belohnungen |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fataler Fehler | 12 | 10 | 10,000 Parsteel, 10 2★ Explorer Parts |

Tips
Check the building requirements first. If R&D Department or Drydock A is behind, the platform upgrade cannot start and the mission will wait.
The build itself is quick at 3 minutes, so once the requirements are met you can clear Fortification almost immediately and move on to Hush. For more missions around level 12, see the STFC mission guide.
