[Bug] Styx Open World Operation: Ironclad - final drop pod lands and instantly takes off again

On the Week 208 build: At the conclusion of Ironclad: Research - on Styx, when plating is installed at the final location and the drop pod lands - player is notified of Mission Complete, rewards are granted, and in the same instant while the player is still close to where the final armor plate was installed... the drop pod takes off again.

Desired result: Mission script should clean up the final drop pod quietly, after the player has moved out of range +1km or reloaded the prospect.

Speculation: It feels like the mission designer had a bigger plan for this one, that what was possible to deliver in a limited time. A heavily protected landing site for research pods? But the player doesn't get to see or perform any "research" - nor are the pods attacked by anything, to justify the armor plates.

Expected: Defend area from a mini-boss trying to attack the pod, and hold ground for 2 minutes while the research pod "does something."
