The System Defense Forces/Privateers are a dangerous faction.

Privateer Naval Drills

The Privateer AI Locus is a well-paying locus which summons starships from tiny Interceptors to fearsome Destroyers. It is important to note that you should not let the privateers gather in numbers, as they can quickly whittle down even the fiercest of Warships. However, this is one of the most valuable AI Loci in the game due to the number of Subcapital ships that spawn, which allow you to quickly build up AI Heat.
