Horizons Am I missing something; again?

OK, I don't want to bug report this as I am not sure it is one.

I have been doing assassination missions for a while now and they come in two forms. Go to said system, scan and get a mission message telling me where in the system the target is, or a message telling me to contact 'X' who maybe in another system. I then contact 'X' and they tell me where to find the target.

The 1st kind; scan and get the target location. I fly to the location and then a 'mission USS' pops up, I drop in and the target is there. However; not every time yesterday. I go and find the mission USS and drop in; but all I find is local security ships on patrol and no target. This happened 3 times yesterday, out of about 8 missions. The target is no where to be found. The mission then runs out of time and fails. I have tried leaving the USS and trying to find it again; this can only be done if I leave the system and then return, but the target is not there, only the security ships are still there. I have tried hanging about in the USS, still nothing.

So am I missing something; or is this Elite, business as usual?
