Aerospace Material is one of the more obscure resources you can get inArknights: Endfield, yet it’s necessary for one of the game’s most important mechanics. You’ll need quite a bit of this special resource as you progress, so here’s where and how you can obtain it.

How to get Aerospace Material in Arknights: Endfield

Aerospace Material is one of the key resources needed toupgrade your MFG Cabinsaboard the OMV Dijiang. As such, it is extremely valuable, and you will need a good chunk of it to ensure your Cabins reach their maximum levels. However, unlike other resources in Arknights: Endfield, you cannot craft Aerospace Material, and it is not harvested from the world likeFerrium Orewould be.

Instead, Aerospace Material is only obtainable fromRecycling Stationsscattered across all regions of the game. These unique nodes become accessible only when they’re ready for interaction. You’ll recognize them by their distinctive appearance:a small, owl-like creature perched on the station,wearing a yellow boxaround its neck. When you approach, the owl and node will rise from their resting positions, signaling that the node is ready to be harvested.

On the map, Recycling Stations have aflagas part of their symbol, making it easier for you to identify them from the many other icons present.

By interacting with a Recycling Station, you’ll acquire some much-needed Aerospace Material, but the Recycling Station will also go into a dormant mode that tends toreset with the game’s Daily Reset time.Once a Recycling Station has been harvested, it won’t produce any additional Aerospace Material until the Daily Reset. You can tell a station is dormant if you approach it and the node remains still in the ground.

Interacting with a single Recycling Station typically won’t provide enough Aerospace Material for immediate use. Fortunately, every region inArknights: Endfieldis home to several Recycling Stations. Ihighly recommendmaking it a habit of visiting them daily, as skipping them will eventually hinder your overall progression.

What is Aerospace Material used for in Arknights: Endfield?

There are two variants of Aerospace Material, each serving a distinct function despite sharing the same overall purpose: Aerospace Material 1 and Aerospace Material 2.

Both types of Aerospace Material come from the same Recycling Stations, and you’ll often receive both types when you interact with one. However, obtaining Aerospace Material 2 requires you to have a higher Area Status before it starts to appear, so don’t be alarmed if you only get Aerospace Material 1 early on.
