Hello,
this is a salvaging ship from Drake Interplanetary from the videogame "Star Citizen".
It is the smallest ship in its category and can be operated by a single person.
It has two salvage arms to scrape off hull material of abandoned ships. It also has two tractor beam arrays behind a kind of "laser crusher" to process bigger parts into smaller ones that are then picked up by a grinder under the pilot's cabin. A filler station compresses the harvested material into neat little boxes that can be stored in the cargo area.
The ship also features a habitation section.
Even though it is basically a rip-off of Eve Online's mining ship, the Venture, I still like the Vulture's design more. It's one of those cases where the copy is actually better than the original. The Venture looks cool but feels more like a concept or sketch for a ship, whereas the Vulture is like the fully fleshed out and finalized design that looks realistic and believable. I really like that it looks like the space version of a combine or cotton harvester, like "what would a combine or cotton harvester look like if we took it to space".
The ship has interior.
I built it in 1.4:1 scale.
Before you paste the schematic make sure to set //perf update and neighbors to off. And paste with entities (-e).
Enjoy!

Yeah, I really liked the "combine harvester in space" feeling about it
It's a game in development and there are many videos and dedicated channels covering its progress and they're almost impossible to miss when you search up anything SC related.
So, I think anyone who gets into SC knows what to expect: bugs, wipes and server downtime. If you don't like that, don't buy the game.
Also, for a scam, I think they put too much work into it. Scams usually look very cheap, but Star Citizens world and ship designs are one of the most complex and detailed ones I've seen.
You might argue that CIG works slow, and you might be right, but that doesn't make the game a scam xD
