I'm quite sure that under the table funding from an unknown business benefactor could do this faction well. Hell, I understand the need to fly the "cheap" ships out there, but I would personally consider ships such as the Switchblade or Scimitar to be cheap-ish...
While I value RP quite a bit I feel that practicality must also be taken into consideration at times. (Not that this is any of my business. I'm sorry for imposing.)
