Reclaim

Federation salvage contracts have a clause most operators skip past: first on-site gets priority recovery rights. The Reclaim was redesigned around that clause. An afterburner and upgraded engines make it the fastest salvager in its class — an unusual design choice for the Federation, which normally optimizes for margin over mobility. The tradeoff is fuel: at full burn, the Reclaim drinks its tank dry in a dozen jumps, and smart operators learn which wrecks are worth the sprint and which aren't. The weapon mount was dropped to free up fitting capacity, leaving the most flexible utility bay in its class. Federation salvage crews don't fight over wrecks — they outrun the competition and file the paperwork first.
