The CSV slowly worked its way into contemporary use, not long after the official recognition of the emergence of the "Junker" population. The precursors of this vessel can be found in the myriad designs employed by individual Junker homebrewed designs found cruising about the inner system junk fields.

The pure economical genius of the craft found itself many admirers in the form of commercial engineering and space lifting companies, who quickly clamored for access to these vessels for their own purposes (much to the dismay of commercial vessel retailers).

Since then, the Junkers have made a tidy business issuing this small but hardy freighter for the use of the greater population of Sirius, though not without occasional "ingenious" refinements to plans and purpose that have been attributed to roughly 40% of all hair loss in official maintenance and design document producers.

Outdated Review (4.86)

Review (4.86) Unfortunately this ship has been reduced to a mere middle ground thing that people use when going between their restart commands. She is not bad, has decent armor for her size and she can mount a Class-6 Freighter shield, and on a ship this small that gives you the ability to easily shield tank. Unfortunately this ship fails in most respects, having a small cargo bay for a freighter, rather pathetic armament, and lacking in even the most basic systems like a mine launcher or a CD mount. The ship looks good, and is a nice RP vessel for the Junkers but frankly this is now just the poor man's taxi between restarts and that newly repped ship they want. She does get a mining bonus, but like most small ships, the gun only fires backwards, so it is not as useful as you would suspect.
