Lore
The Frankenhauler is three decommissioned freighters bolted together with structural bracing, connected by cargo transfer tunnels, and fitted with duct-taped jump drives. Largest cargo bay at T4 — more than the Nebula Conglomerate, which the Federation finds personally offensive. At 75,000 credits it's the cheapest T4 hauler by a wide margin — the Rim doesn't pay premium for ships that used to be other ships. Speed 2 because the Rim puts engines on everything. Two weapon mounts because frontier convoys get raided. Hull integrity is "probably fine." Structural engineers from every other empire agree it shouldn't fly. It flies anyway.
