Thargoid Sensors were originally rare,<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=141038&page=71&p=2179457#post2179457 Soontill Relics, the Regor Permit Sector and DB's cryptic hints....], Michael Brookes, Elite: Dangerous Forums, 2015-05-02 10:28 GMT</ref> but have become common in systems within a 150 ly radius of [[Merope]] that contain [[Non-Human Signal Source]]s or [[Alien Crash Site]]s. A Threat Level 4 Non-Human Signal Source will usually contain a single Thargoid Sensor, though if a [[Thargoid Interceptor]] is present it will become hostile if the Sensor is retrieved. Alien Crash Sites usually contain salvageable Thargoid Sensors found near the wreckage.

Alien Crash Sites sometimes contain salvageable Thargoid Sensors found near the wreckage. They can also be found at certain [[Shipwreck]]s, such as the crashed [[Anaconda]] on LTT 1935 6 A.


Sensors can also be obtained from Threat Level 4 Military Convoys, where they are being transported by a [[Type-9 Heavy]] and can be stolen using [[Limpet Controller/Hatch Breaker|Hatch Breakers]]. There are two convoy configurations: the first includes the Type-9, a [[Vulture]], two [[Anaconda]]s, and assorted other ships, and the second includes the Type-9 with an escort of four Anacondas. The Type-9 will usually charge its [[Frame Shift Drive]] and jump to another system to escape, so it is recommended to attack in a [[Wing]], with one member focusing on the Type-9 while the others distract the escorts.
