Junker (YT-2400 light freighter)

The Junker, originally known as Blackstar, was a modified YT-2400 light freighter with a Starhawk shuttle instead of an escape pod and a power crystal that could burrow through deflector shields, although the starship was armed with no other weapons. It also featured two military-grade universal docking rings and a short range tractor beam array on its rear. The ship was owned by Khedryn Faal and Marr Idi-Shael, who used it for salvaging operations.
