I have 2 x lvl 4 and 2 x lvl 3 R&D agents 3 jumps from each other.

Would I have to do 16 missions for each to get the bonus/faction mission or will it be after 16 missions total?

Will it be split between the lvl 3 and 4 agents?

Will I be able to do them in a Tengu? Last time I bothered with R&D agents was ~8 years ago and I remember the one faction mission was impossible in a Raven.

Please advise.

They are split by level, so you need to 16 for each level to get the storyline mission (I assume that's what you are asking).

The daily missions are very easy and can be done in a shuttle (for delivery) or just deliver some trit in the agent's station.

The storyline missions are as hard as any other storyline mission.

16 per level, what I was looking for, tx broski.

So, 2 storyline every 8 days, easily doable in Tengu.

Thanx for your answer!

You are assuming they will be security division missions. There are storyline missions for distribution and mining divisions too.

You should check EVE-Agents and DOTLAN or the in-game agent finder to figure-out what is the closest storyline agent(s) for the same faction (any corp) as the R&D agent. That will be the one you always get after the 16th mission.
