Nirai SPP-C1

The Nirai SPP-C1 offers repair capabilities from a distance.

In-Game Description
''A civilian repair-laser, which is particularly popular among traders and merchants. Since its operation range is rather limited, you have to be close to the objects you're about to repair.''

Characteristics
Repair beams somehow use a focused beam of green energy to repair damage other ships have taken. However, the Nirai SPP-C1 only operates within a relatively small 1.5 kilometres. No user input other than moving it in range of a ship is required. Any ship outside its radius will simply not receive any repairs. Any ship within it, however, will be repaired. If multiple ships are within range, the closest one will be repaired.

Its 60% effect statistic appears to be a relative measure of the rates of repair versus other such beams.

The usefulness of repair beams is doubted by many because of their late introduction to the game. However, they are great for keeping allied ships alive, especially if they are defenseless, as in the case of some freelance missions and when hiring wingmen to defend yourself.
