Drake Interplanetary Vulture ship overview

The Vulture is a small salvage ship manufactured by Drake Interplanetary. Focusing on long range and self-reliance, the Vulture allows single-operators to engage salvage with Drake's signature emphasis on practicality.

Key features

• Scraper Beams: Dual integrated scraper beams use Drake's patented Tomium system, developed with professional salvagers for the ultimate in speed and efficiency
• Integrated Tractor Rig: The Ripper's claw is outfitted with an integrated Lariat tractor rig, designed specifically for the Vulture. This industrial-grade tractor's innovative proprietary beam configuration makes it more powerful than setups three times its size
• Cargo: The Vulture's interior bay offers ample space outside the boundary of its cargo grid, where more cargo can be loosely packed. Or it can house small ground vehicles such the Mirai Pulse, Argo ATLS, or Greycat STV
• Long Haul Capable: The Vulture eases the pain of lengthy travel, and the frequent dangers associated therewith, by providing a versatile combination of comfort and convenience. A full-size bunk employs a new composite mattress developed and tested by professional salvagers and haulers right here at Drake. When the going gets rough, you're never more than a skip and a stumble away from the cockpit and command station
• Central Intuitive Control: With maximum visibility and vital ship system controls at your fingertips, the Vulture puts you in command of navigation, defense, weapons, and the Vulture's unique all-in-one utility arrangement
