Seeing as this would be tied to the mining magnet that means this would be a space only boss, to which I have slight concerns about its knockback abilities, since once someone gets launched in space they don't stop until they hit something, usually being an asteroid or structure in debris wherein they take like a fuck ton of brute upon impact. Other than that it looks really cool and I'm totally behind this idea, it's time for the Y-drone n X-drone to no longer be the only bosses available.
In terms of loot and based around the event, I'm not sure what you have in mind for the syndicate forces assaulting the place, as in do you intend drones or actual critter agents? If drones you could have them drop some matsci parts for tools n such, and agents could have their micros removed so as to be looted of their gear.
As for the S.W.O.R.D itself, I think it would be interesting to maybe have an engine/PTL upgrade or something that could be slotted into the engine or PTL or maybe an SMES to allow it to produce its own energy up to an amount or increase an engine's output. Alternatively maybe it could also do something special for shield generators on the maps that have them.
For smaller scale rewards, it could drop for mining like a load of materials or maybe even a weapon? Could maybe have the engine unit of the S.W.O.R.D drop individually and allow it to be crafted into a pod engine, pod weapon, or mining tool perhaps.
EDIT: forgot to voice another concern about how this could be a very common thing seeing as most experienced miners use the QT to pull in asteroids and any miner can spam the mining magnet either to specifically pull this boss or because they simply aren't getting what they need/want.
