How to attach a suppressor in Starfield?

In Starfield, a suppressor is not just some basic item that you can simply find in the world and apply on a weapon. Instead, you have to use the services of a Weapon Workbench. It is where you get the ability to craft and attach such an implement.
Be warned however - you're going to need some specific crafting materials. The material cost varies depending on the weapon you want to attach a suppressor to. This is why you should first visit a Workbench and check the requirements for your weapon of choice. Once you have the necessary materials for a suppressor, you simply install it at the Workbench.

There is an alternative method of getting a silenced weapon, but requires some luck or money. For example, you can find an already silenced weapon at a corpse as loot, or simply buy a weapon with a silencer already attached from a merchant.
How does the suppressor work in Starfield?

As can be expected, the main use of a suppressor is to muffle shots fired from your weapon of choice. However, this is not the only advantage. With a silencer installed, the weapon accuracy also improves, making it easier to hit targets. There are downsides to a suppressor - with one installed, the effective range of your projectiles will decrease, and additionally, the weapon's weight will also increase.
