SAP 8 containers are the last remaining tradeable artifact from original Dark Wheel missions and may represent experimental long-range jump technology or gateway mechanics. Historical testing at permit-locked systems and anomalous locations suggests these cores could unlock hidden access or trigger hidden discovery mechanics.

SAP 8 cores (found on Military Courier Vessels) are being tested at permit-locked systems Polaris and HIP 22460, Triton in Sol, systems with 'sap' in the name, and various other locations. No confirmed use discovered yet.
I finally acquired 3 SAP 8 core containers (can still be found carried by "Military Courier Vessel" in systems with war state). Going to try different things with them. Polaris and HIP 22460 are still permit locked, next i try is Triton in Sol. Also on the list are the systems with "sap" in the name, getting scanned by a Thargoid interceptor, trigger an emp burst from the Thargoids, activate Guardian obelisk, terminal and beacon, some systems (not going to list all), the new cristaline lifeform things. Any other things i could try? Click to expand... I have already tried most of that since 3.3 with no luck (except going to triton) , but it is always good to double check. Did you happen to notice a quirk with the route plotter near HIP 22460 ? There are two systems about 21 ish LY apar...
Historical rumors suggest SAP 8 cores were related to Dark Wheel technology enabling huge jump distances. Antimatter Containment Units referenced in Legacy lore as exotic power source for experimental high-energy systems.
SAP 8s were in then they got removed, and then they got added back with the mil couriers. Still have not found a use for either the ACU or SAP 8s. Yes, allied with both TDW and most of the factions in sol including Mother Gaia. Ranks are Deadly, Elite, Elite. It was rumored that sap 8s were related to some sort of tech that let TDW jump huge distances. As far as the ACUs it is hinted at in Legacy Spoiler that the major powers have access to antimatter, but that it is still somewhat exotic. Specifically there is a Panther Clipper flown by what are basically pirates (but backed by a major faction) that is said to have had way too high of an energy profile for a vessel that size should have. It was also running some VERY experimental tech (with presumable insane power requirements) that c...
SAP 8 cores are the only remaining tradeable item from Dark Wheel missions (v1.4) still in-game, making them potentially significant. No recent mentions or confirmed uses in past 6 months despite historical importance.
Hm ok good to know. Could you provide any more infos about what you have done? What were youre ranks at the time? Could/did you make any connections with antimatter containment units who are also carried by the Military Courier Vessel? Also were you allied with the Dark Wheel in Shinrarta and/or Mother Gaia in Sol? Sorry for all the questions but i just want to have as precise results as possible. The reason why im so curious about the sap 8 cores is they were part of some Dark Wheel missions back in 1.4 i think and its the only thing thats left from this time. The missions are no longer in game as far as i know. Also i havent seen them mentioned at all in the last 6 months. Do you have more infos about them by any chance? I didnt travel to HIP 22460 or Polaris, i just tried to plote a r...
