Pithead

The Pithead is the only T4 mining platform with speed 2 — the overclocked engines are technically out of spec, but they work, and the Rim doesn't believe in specs anyway. Eighteen hundred cargo capacity means it strips belts bare before slower competitors finish their first load. At 85,000 credits, it's the cheapest T4 miner available because the Rim builds ships from whatever's available rather than whatever's optimal. The single weapon mount exists because frontier mining operations attract attention, and the Rim's response to attention is always armed.
