The guy behind Wing Commander (and my favorite game of all time, Privateer) has a mission based space flight game out next year. You can see the first hour of gameplay here: https://youtu.be/1H-0x4xk2Xk
Keep in mind, cutscenes are in-engine not pre-rendered.
Have you tried the original Everspace? It’s a roguelike so it’s basically randomised missions. Rebel Galaxy might also scratch the itch but it’s more “naval” in it’s combat - you move on a 2d plane and fire broadsides, rather than dogfighting.
Wing commander, Freespace.
Games of this genre are completely dead. I’d love another decent mission based space flight game.

Thank you for the link!
Nah dude. X4 is great. The genre is still niche, but not dead.
Sure, X4 is amazing. But that is multi leveled. Management, etc.
I’m talking about very specific mission based games. No economy. No money.

I have played Everspace 2. I enjoyed it.
