The Junker Salvager...?

[Chenzo-]

This may seem a rather weird thing for me to talk about, but i have some questions about the Junker Salvager that maybe the community can answer..

For starters, long ago decided it's a Transport, as although it can mount Gunboat guns, it still has a Transport shield and well, has a massive cargo bay.

So, that's pretty much sorted, but what about the actual Design of the ship ?

If you put a junker salvager and the small liberty cruiser side by side, they have roughly the same length, and on the salvager it chared the same Ring's at the front where on the liberty cruiser, the forward gun is mounted. Also, the main center of the ship has the same boxy rectangular dimensions asif litterally a liberty cruiser is inside it.

Likewise, it has Liberty style thruster's.. I am not asking INRP is it made from liberty cruisers, that is a obvious No, but i am wondering, seeingas the dimensions fit perfectly, when the Salvager was being made, was it drawn around the liberty cruiser?

Over and above all, the ship is rather wonderfull, the attention to detail when you look closly is.. outstanding.. Anyways..

Many thanks to anyone who can properly answer...
