Unable to complete High Value Target mission

I am unable to finish the mission. I refueled the generator and got the targets location. When i arrived i destroyed all the hunters and hounds then killed the targeted harvester (but did not loot it yet as more enemies showed up) and then started to repair my companion hound. As soon as my companion stood up the body of the harvester freaked out and flew into the ocean (where i obviously was unable to reach it) i closed the game and reopened hoping the mission would reset as i didnt grab the loot and it did not so now the pick up icon is just floating above the ground with nothing under it
I am playing solo
I am playing the game on pc through the Xbox Game Pass

It’s know that your companion is one of if not the worst loot destroyer. The moment a base assault is over I always pick up my “diversion target” before I do anything els. Other than that, I never use it for anything these days.

Unfortunately, it’s a known issue with GZ. After they’re killed, machine bodies can randomly get yeeted to another planet or, in your case, the ocean😁 I’ve learned to grab the loot as soon as they are destroyed. It’s been a few years now since we’ve had this bug. I really think it has to do with different machines been too close to each other.
