Deep Space Recovery Vessel L-2783/Legends

The Corellian Engineering Corporation Deep Space Recovery Vessel L-2783, more commonly called the L-2783, was a small Bulk cruiser / Bulk transport designed to travel to remote locations to repair or recover damaged starships.
==Characteristics==
Essentially a large cargo hold with engines attached, the L-2783 was based off of bulk cargo capital ship design, and sported a main cavernous cargo hold capable of containing and carrying ships up to the size of an old-style cruiser. Envisioned as a mobile repair base and scavenger ship, the L-2783's powerful tractor beam could pull in ships or wreckage as needed into its internal hold, with the hold capable of being partitioned off by enormous force fields.
Aiding the ship was a small fleet of four cargo shuttles and fifty maintenance / scavenger pods held in an aft facing hangar bay. These small two-person spacecraft were equipped with clamps and plasma cutters, allowing the pods to retrieve smaller objects or work in unison to dismantle larger objects. Debris was then deposited into the L-2783's large dorsal cargo holds where it could be dealt with by a large array of onboard repair shops and supply vaults.
Coming stock with minimal weaponry, the L-2783 had heavy shields that were more than enough to protect it from pirates and aggressive scavengers. Like any CEC design, however, the ship was vastly upgradable and customizable; as a result these ships were known to be retrofitted into small carriers along with with substantial upgrades to weapons and shielding.
==Roles==
The L-2783 was deployed in a myriad of fashions due to its large cargo capacity and heavy shielding. Scavengers made use of the L-2783 as full-time salvage craft, making their livings harvesting wrecks and debris. Other L-2783's were converted into capable military carriers by mercenary groups and crime lords, while pirates occasionally used the L-2783 as a pirate vessel - absconding with entire freighters by simply swallowing them up. A few true entrepreneurs and businessmen used the L-2783 as a massive mobile repair base, using the L-2783's vast cargo capacity to service space stations and outposts - while even carrying out in-flight repairs on smaller vessels.
