USS Franklin-A Part 4 is the fourth step in the eleven-part USS Franklin-A mission chain in Star Trek Fleet Command, recommended for level 42. It has a single objective, upgrading Operations to level 43, and it needs warp 1 to start and to finish, so there is no travel and no fight. The reward is one Franklin Warp Regulator Mk. II, and completing it unlocks USS Franklin-A Teil 5. It pays out for a station upgrade you are already working toward.
USS Franklin-A Part 4 objectives
Es gibt ein Ziel und keine Verzweigung:
- Upgrade Operations to Level 43.
The story line for the whole chain is the same short instruction: upgrade your Station to unlock updates for the USS Franklin-A. Each part asks for the next Operations level, and each hands back one part for the ship. Part 4 is the Operations 43 step. The target is Operations 43; Operations 44 belongs to Part 5.
Wo und welcher Warp
No system is attached to the objective, and the mission needs warp 1 both to start and to complete. You never have to move a ship for it. The recommended level is 42, which lines up with the Operations 43 target: the part is meant to sit in your log while you work on that upgrade.
What Operations 43 asks for
The only real work in this part is the Operations upgrade itself. Current game data lists this base cost and unboosted build time for Operations level 43:
| Requirement | Amount |
|---|---|
| Tritanium | 137.25M |
| Parsteel | 14.93B |
| Dilithium | 45.75M |
| 4★ Common Refined Erze | 50,000 |
| 4★ Rare Refined Ore | 2,500 |
| Unboosted build time | 384d 11h |
| Buildings needed first | Shipyard 42, Defense Platform E 10, Ship Hangar 42 |
The building prerequisites are the part most players trip over. Shipyard 42 and Ship Hangar 42 need to be finished before the Operations upgrade can even be queued, so check those first.
USS Franklin-A Part 4 rewards
The reward is 1 Franklin Warp Regulator Mk. II. Completing the part also unlocks Part 5.
The same upgrade also completes the separate Operations 43 mission, which pays 80 each of 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore, 4★ Uncommon Refined Crystal and 4★ Uncommon Refined Gas. One upgrade, two mission payouts.
Where Part 4 sits in the chain
Every part of the chain follows the same pattern, and the recommended level climbs with the Operations target:
| Teil | Recommended level | Objective | Belohnung |
|---|---|---|---|
| Teil 1 | 36 | Operations 37 | Franklin Warp Interlock Mk. II |
| Teil 2 | 38 | Operations 39 | Franklin Warp Conduit Mk. II |
| Teil 3 | 40 | Operationen 41 | Franklin Warp Relay Mk. II |
| Teil 4 | 42 | Operationen 43 | Franklin Warp Regulator Mk. II |
| Teil 5 | 43 | Betrieb 44 | Franklin Warp Injector Mk. II |
| Teil 6 | 44 | Betrieb 45 | Franklin Warp Containment Mk. II |
| Part 7 | 45 | Betrieb 46 | Franklin Warp Coil Mk. II |
| Part 8 | 46 | Betrieb 47 | Franklin Warp Core Mk. II |
| Part 9 | 47 | Betrieb 48 | Franklin-A Alpha Retrofit Key |
| Part 10 | 48 | Betrieb 49 | Franklin-A Delta Retrofit Key |
| Part 11 | 49 | Operations 50 | Franklin-A Omega Retrofit Key |
Part 4 is the last of the two-level jumps. From Part 5 on, each part asks for exactly one more Operations level than the one before.

Tips
Treat this as a checklist item, not a mission to plan around. Nothing here needs a ship, a crew or fuel, so the only preparation is the Operations 43 upgrade and its prerequisite buildings.
Claim both payouts. Operations 43 is the objective for this part and for the Operations 43 mission, so once the upgrade lands, look for both in your mission log.
