The Catalogue-class approaches wreck recovery as an information problem. Every fragment is scanned and cross-referenced against the Confederacy's materials database before entering the cargo hold — the integrated scanner identifies salvageable components that competitors' crews would overlook. What makes the Catalogue unusual for a salvage vessel is the four utility bays and the processing overhead to run them. Most salvagers commit to a single approach. The Catalogue is designed to be refitted for whatever the wreck field demands: expanded cargo for bulk recovery, additional scanning for high-value extraction, towing rigs for intact hull sections. Insurance adjusters across the sector prefer Catalogue-generated wreck assessments. They are the only ones that come with complete documentation.
