After arriving in orbit at Ord Mantell & speaking to the General via the Holoterminal, you are instructed to land & speak to Agent Ottau with T7 (not Kira) as T7 is needed for this mission.
Therefore, if you got Kira early & have been a little lax in updating his gear, you might want to fix that before starting.
After speaking to Agent Ottau, who stands near the Flight Droid in Fort Garnik, Ord Mantell, you are informed your quarry is on a small Island, which is located north, off the head land of Oradam Village & Drelliad Village. On this island are level 15 Imperial Troops. The instance looks like a giant Bunker.
Enter & proceed down the lift. Your lighsaber will make little work of the Hydraulic Gearbox to open the door at the bottom. Alarms will blare & 3x Imperial troops will come running (normal). Fight your way to your objective & find Lieutenant Marcovic (Elite) standing in front of it.
Behind him (& will not be aggro'd during the fight with Lieutenant Marcovic) stands a Heavy Imperial Sentry Droid (Elite) with 5525 Hit Points. You no not need to fight this droid to progress.
When Lieutenant Marcovic has been defeated he will turn Green & you will need to interact with him to continue. A cut-scene ensues & T7 downloads the required Data. Then upon completion of the cut-scene Lieutenant Marcovic will again be hostile, but with one (1) hit point just hit him with your basic attack to finish him.
Then you are required to go back to Agent Ottau at Fort Garnik.
If you grabbed the Fast Travel Bind Point near the Flight Path in Fort garnik, it is a quick journey. After reporting to Agent Ottau your mission updates to return to your ship.
When you get the lift down to Knight's Hangar in the Orbital Station you are met by Sith Inquisitor Ferav (Strong - 2190 hp), 2x Imperial Commando's (Ranged - 340 hp) & 2x Sith Acolyte's (Melee - 745 hp) who have Kira Carsen as a Hostage. They stand between you & your ship.
After combat you speak to Kira Carsen, then board your ship & use the Holoterminal on board.
