"The scanner section in the middle of the console is provided as standard on
most ships. Some hardened space travellers remove it in the belief that
demonstrates a certain amount of machismo, but others say this demonstrates
something else."
SIZE: 1 TONNE
COST: 630 CREDITS
Taking up only one tonne of space, the Scanners are a good investment, especially
if you are regularly involved in space combat - the few seconds that they save of
looking for the enemy ships can mean the difference between Life and Death in a
small fighter. Contrary to what the manual says, they are only stocked at
starports of medium size and above.
