X-13 Research Facility

The X-13 research facility is a location on the westernmost border of the Big MT.

Layout
The first section is comprised of three labs, each containing a part of the Stealth suit Mk II. The second section has two levels. The top level is an observation point for researchers with a Virtual Reality stealth testing area, and the lower level is a test track for the stealth suit Mk II.

 * Stealth suit Mk II
 * Protonic inversal axe found in the hard-locked Stealth Test Area #2 (VR Simulation Room).
 * X-8 kennel key in a suitcase in a room with a force field covering the door to your right upon entry.

 * K9000 Mod - Resla roil Bathroom observation area terminal has this.
 * Information about Auto-doc upgrade: Implant Y-7 is stored in the terminal just left upon entering office observation area #1 (not to be confused with office observation area #2). You can find the office observation area #1 by entering the reception observation area, and going straight to the other side of the room, where you will find a door with a sign on the floor reading "office observation area #1".

 * Recipes - Sneak skill book From the test entrance turn right and go through the left door (the one sharing a wall with the "Hold up, Rocketeers!" poster), go through the door just on your right (the one sharing a wall with the Repconn poster), go through the hole in the wall on the right, go straight through the next hole in the wall, and the skill book is between the two fridges.
