The Kiith Manaan sends a transmission, ordering you to search for a damaged destroyer, the Bushan-Re.
Locate the Bushan-Re, so repairs can proceed immediately. Use waypoints to send recons on routes circling out from the position of your command ship.
Select your recons (or produce two or three if you don't possess recons) and use the waypoint system to patrol around the command ship. With the recons selected, right click and select the circular waypoint pattern. Press W to open waypoint movement and click a circular patrol formation around the command ship. You won't find the Bushan-Re just yet, but the exercise is good practice for using waypoints in the future. Before you can locate the Bushan-Re, other objectives must be completed.

Use waypoints to pinpoint the location of the Bushan-Re. |
To research repair technology, you must build an engineering module. This module can be found listed on the build manager at the bottom.
Open up the build menu by pressing the B key. Select the engineering module and start construction. You'll observe a brief cutscene of the canister jettisoning and being replaced with the engineering module. Once it's completed, select the research menu with the R key and start research on repair and salvage technology.
Select your workers (either with a band select or with a hotkey, if you have assigned them to a group) and press H to start harvesting the nearby resources. If you built a processor, make sure you use the processor to guard the workers to hasten resource gathering.
Not long after the mission begins, raider forces converge and attack the workers and the Kuun-Lan. Select your acolytes (link them into ACVs) and intercept the fighters. Use aggressive tactics in claw or X formation. Finish off the fighters and dock with the Kuun-Lan for repairs.
A cutscene soon interrupts, displaying faint communication signals on the sensors map. You're ordered to send the recons over to locate the Bushan-Re amongst the signals.
Select your recons and use the sensors map to navigate the quick ships over to the signals. As you arrive, the Bushan-Re appears in a cutscene; it's heavily damaged and need of immediate repair.
Send a worker to repair the Bushan-Re. The more workers you send, the faster you can repair the ship. The workers repairing must be upgraded after researching repair technology in the engineering module.

Use workers to repair the Bushan-Re - be sure to defend your repair ships with ACVs. |
Once repair technology has been researched, select your workers and, using the right click menu, choose "upgrade" to send them back to the Kuun-Lan to be outfitted with the new technology. You may also wish to produce additional workers to quicken the repair process and still continue to harvest remaining resources.
Send the worker group to the Bushan-Re. Escort the workers with your ACV group; select the ACVs and order them to guard the worker group. Once you reach the Bushan-Re, select your workers and order them to repair the damaged destroyer. The more workers you use, the faster the repair process. You can monitor the progress by selecting the Bushan-Re and watching its health bar.
