Federation insurance actuaries flagged ice harvesting as the highest-loss industrial operation three quarters running before someone authorized the Cold Storage redesign. The result is the toughest ice harvester in its class — reinforced hull plating and a default armor package that makes it genuinely difficult to destroy. The armor drops speed to a crawl, which the actuaries accepted because slower ships file fewer collision claims. Dual extraction arrays keep throughput competitive despite the extra mass. The weapon mount is gone — the Federation decided that shooting back was less cost-effective than simply not dying.
