Finally, destroyers are also superb salvaging ships because of their many highslots. Salvaging destroyers commonly fit a full highslot rack split between equal numbers of Salvagers and Tractor Beams, with a propulsion module and some Cap Rechargers in the midslots and as many Expanded Cargoholds as possible in the lowslots. Fitted like this a Tech 1 destroyer is a suitable salvager for missions up to and including Level 3s.
