WH Bristling Sardine

The Bristling Sardine was a one-of-a-kind custom creation by WH Industries at the request of an unnamed wealthy individual who had an urgent need to transfer very small items very quickly. This individual wanted the smallest possible ship with, in their words, "all the guns". When it was pointed out that a ship so small had very few mounting points for weapons, the individual broke into WH Industries' shipyard, bolted a turret to the top of the engine in defiance of all common sense, and stole the ship, blasting a small UC Navy frigate into pieces in the process.

WH Industries subsequently denied all knowledge of the ship and claimed to have nothing to do with its creation or knew who had stolen it. Surveillance footage of the shipyard on the day of the theft was mysteriously copied over with footage of the company's Christmas party and the CEO's drunken rendition of "Eye of the Tiger".

The Bristling Sardine is a Class B smol friend that becomes available at level 5 from New Atlantis. It requires the Ship Vendor Framework.
