I remember the discussion about a fighter Yue made (Border World Series U), the one the Bundschuh explicitly rejected to become theirs. And I also remember that it was mentioned in that discussion that they get their ships from their allies anyway, which would be the hessians. so they could also use their ships.

And who is this mysterious "someone else"? I can see it as a joint development with major outcast participation at best, which still keeps it primarily outcast.
The Bundies don't have the bank accounts to finance such a project.
The hessians formed around 700 AS from a bunch of Daumann workers, by that time the outcasts were already in space for a long time, so I'm sure they were the more experienced ones concerning developing ships. Plus trading cardamine made them rich, so they have the financial background.
Hackers might have had a bigger participation since they are nerds and able to gather money.
