Lore

<tabber>Salvaged Construction= The Shiv is built out of the pieces of several ships (don't ask where it all came from), using a StarCitizen:Cutlass Black as the torn-apart base, a mixed-origin quad S3 remote turret primarily hailing from the StarCitizen:Hurricane, main thruster nacelles from the StarCitizen:Valkyrie, main hull thrusters from the StarCitizen:Freelancer, and several parts which are simply unidentifiable.<ref name="ShivLaunch"/></tabber>
