My New Whip

I have always dreaded those salvage missions where you jump in to retrieve some space trash that some exec or criminal has set their eyes on. Black boxes, military plans, maybe even wine? Then suddenly as soon as you open your cargo hatch, all hell breaks loose and 3 or 4 anacondas jump in and roast you. Turns a mission with a $200k payout into a rebuy cost of around $22 million if you are in your "big ship". Not anymore.Then the Krait came along. Now, I can jump in, hit the salvage with a limpet, and get the hell outa there asap. Those ships jump in, but they can't keep up with the boost speed on my 5 star 6A dirties. Maybe they get a good shot off or two, but my 5 star shields laugh at that.
Then I'm gone.
