    So there is no speedracing scene?

    No big empires that want propaganda weapons?

    No companies who want the marketing ploy of “We make the fastest ship”?

    There’s no practical reason why any car company would build a car that can go beyond 150km/h either, yet every car manufacturer has their sports/hyper car brand to show off.

    There’s no practical reason for nascar, Formula 1 or the land speed record either.

    Yet all of that exists and all of that gets really nice funding.

    They’ve got an empire that builds moon-sized space stations for propaganda reasons, but doesn’t build the fastest and most maneuverable dogfighter?

    It makes no sense to build a death star either. It unless you factor propaganda in.

    Kinda like Dubai has hyper cars for their police. There’s no practical reason for that either.

      Firepower, speed, cost. Normally, pick 2 (if you’re a military group, hobbies, racer, whatever) but a smuggler has a good reason to pick 3
