Salvage

Salvaging is the collection and processing of destroyed ships, stations, and other manufactured goods. Ships such as the Aegis Reclaimer and the Drake Vulture specialize in such a role; coming equipped with unmanned drones, tractor beams, and reclamation equipment to turn burned-out husks into valuable materials.

The first iteration of salvage gameplay has been implemented with Patch 3.18 including 'hull scraping' to sell material for profit and multitool repair.

Drake Vulture
The Vulture is the one-man salvage ship with plenty of on-board storage to help you out on those salvage operations. Featuring the rough and ready design of many of the Drake's vehicles, with an integrated tractor rig, alongside two of the highest tech salvaging lasers, and a cargo bay capable of holding 12 crates of RMC, this rugged ship will fulfill any individuals salvaging dreams.

Aegis Reclaimer
The Aegis Dynamics Reclaimer is a capital sized multi-crew heavy-salvaging ship. With two independent salvaging turrets, unmanned drones, tractor beams, and crew facilities to boot, this is the ideal multi-crew salvaging ship available throughout the verse. The Reclaimer additionally sports a massive 120 SCU cargo bay directly on the salvage-processing deck, as well as an additional 180 SCU deck totaling 300 total SCU onboard.

Hull Scraping
This is the act of stripping away the outermost layer of a ship's fuselage and converting the material into RMC. Players may use either of the dedicated ships, or the multitool for this task.

Reclamation
Is the act of removing still-useful components, materials, and cargo from a ship for further refurbishment and resale throughout the verse.

Shipbreaking
Sometimes referred to as "munching," refers to the act of breaking down a ship into smaller chunks, which are then fed into specialized equipment to break them down further. While not currently implemented in game, both the Drake Vulture and Aegis Reclaimer will be capable of this function in a future update.

Salvage Lasers
Every vessel dedicated to salvaging has one or more salvaging lasers capable of stripping away large swatches of hull.
