So I've been thinking. And thinking. And I've come to the conclusion that the fact that just about every (take note that I said "just about", not all) official faction has their own line of ships. Not just fighters, but some (not all, notice that I said some) have Battleships, Gunboats, and Destroyers. Take the Rouges, for example. Their info card states that they are a "Motley assortment of criminals" (courtesy of the wiki). How can a motley assortment of criminals have the technology, the resources, and the money to make destroyers, gunboats, and the like? Yes, they had snubs in vanilla but think about it. Do the Crips (or any other gang) make their own weapons? Cars? Think about the logic.
I get what you're saying but, comparing the Rogues to the Crips is a bit of a hyperbole. The Rogues run an interstellar crime empire for chrissakes, racking up profits comparable to any of the house corporations. I think they can afford to build and maintain a few capital vessels.
