Maul

Crimson Fleet miners don't call for help. The Maul embodies this principle: two autocannons covering the mining laser, a hull thick enough to shrug off ambushes, and a thirty percent ore yield bonus from an extraction system that treats rock the way the Fleet treats most problems. The reinforced frame does come at a cost — the default armor plating drops effective speed to a crawl until a pilot decides whether they'd rather be slow and armored or merely slow. Most Crimson pilots keep the plate. The ones who removed it aren't around to share their reasoning.
